u all must have watched "16th December" film..in that it comes "DUlhan ki viday ka waqt badalna hai" to control the missile. right. we can do this right.!

Even IR system can do this. it is discussed before in this forum. and my friend "vandit" u all would be knowing him....also have tried it with a small expense of about 100 Rs. and it works fine.
u could ask abt the llink to vandit, coz he gave me it in yahoo msger but now i have deleted the msg archive. Sorry!

Well i use MS office's Speech facility or Language bar for such a work but it is limited only for MS applications(i.e IE etc)

so I think u should search for such plugins or such softwares.
