FYI, Apple got a "design patent" for the Siri icon/button.
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/11...design_patent/

Maybe you should change the image to be on the safe side?

IMHO, besides all the patent madness I don't see the advantage copying the exact Siri design in this case. I also wonder why people like such "skeuomorphs" as the speech bubble appearance of the Siri conversation view?

Cheers,
Michael

So far the list of languages includes English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and French. If anybody would like to contribute translations for other languages, please PM me.

I was afraid they might. The main reason I copied Apple's UI was because I didn't want to take the time to come up with a nice-looking design myself, but I suppose it's possible Apple might notice this some day, so it is probably a good idea to redesign it. Any ideas on design? I'm better at functionality than graphic design.

I am still working on the Harmattan version, please be patient. QT is very different from GTK so the port is not trivial, but I expect I should have a downloadable .deb by the end of 2012.

That Apple is able to get a patent on the exact outline of a microphone icon, is the biggest testament to how utterly ******** the patent system is.

Personally, I think some icon of a brain, or the act of searching, might be more appropriate than the Siri microphone. Frankly, I never understood why Apple chose to use a microphone logo to begin with - I don't associate Siri with sound recording, I associate it with voice processing (which I don't associate with a microphone) or with searching (for which the silhouette of an eye might make sense. Though now that I think about it, so might the silhoutte of an ear...).

So have I understood correctly, are you re-writing the application in Qt?

Yes, I am. It's taking longer for me because this is my first project with QT, and because I have little free time until Christmas or so.

Cool.
It will be much easier for yourself to build updates for all systems.
This is all good news for the future of Saera.

Good luck.

I personally would vote for the startrek communicator badge as icon symbol but maybe you will run also in trouble with this.

For the conversation view I would rather use different colors for the voice input and for Saera's answers to make them better distinguishable. Or the messages could have prefixes as "Me:" and "Saera:" or even avatar/profile pics if you could train Saera to understand different speakers or have several voices in the future.

Maybe there exists already a conversation component in Qt/QML
you can reuse?

Regarding the saera voice have you tried flite for speech output? There was a N900 version some time ago. I think it sounds more natural than espeak as it's based on concatenation instead of formant synthesis.


Best, M.
