Project Common Voice is a Mozilla Foundation effort to build an open-source voice recognition engine that anyone can use to make apps for devices and the web. Voice recognition makes working with and navigating the web more accessible. It also requires thousands of voice samples and data points. Most of the data that drives common voice applications is not open or accessible to those who might want to build useful tech for their communities.
The more people who donate recordings of their voice, the more useful the system will be. Would you be willing to donate a recording of yours?
If you think voice recognition could do more for your constituency or people you know, consider taking a few seconds to give Mozilla a shout-out (literally) at Project Common Voice. And if you do participate in this virtual volunteering initiative, post here about what your experience is like.
