speech recognition will grow over time as the technology gets more popular. As we
write, there are several applications which offer speech recognition services already
available on the Apple Store.
Smartphones, on the other hand, are provided with a built-in microphone which has
already been used to develop many quirky games that use the microphone as an
input device.
Zoom Zoom is a car racing game in which the car speed is controlled by the player's
voice: the more noise you make, the faster the car goes.
iBBQ is a barbecue simulator. As a player, you are requested, among the other
things, to blow in the iPhone microphone to blow on the embers to revive the fire.
Sonic Lighter is a lighter simulator with a distinctive feature: the possibility of blowing
in the microphone to blow out the flame.
But the most popular application using the iPhone microphone as an input device is
Ocarina. The player must tap the holes displayed on screen and blow in the micro-
phone to play with this ocarina simulator.
