    Abstract

    Speech Recognition has not fully permeated in our interaction with devices. Therefore we advocate a speech recognition friendly artificial language (ROILA) that initially was shown to outperform English, however under constraints. ROILA is intended to be used to talk to robots and therefore in this paper we present an experimental study where the recognition of ROILA is compared to English when speech is input using a robot's microphones and both when the robot's head is moving and stationary. Our results show that there was no significant difference between ROILA and English but that the type of microphone and robot's head movement had a significant effect. In conclusion we suggest implications for Human Robot (Speech) Interaction.
