Voice Transcription App

This is a voice transcription app that records audio, transcribes it using the Whisper ASR (Automatic Speech Recognition) model, and stores the transcriptions in a SQLite database. The application is built with Python, using the PyAudio library for recording audio, the Whisper ASR model for transcribing the audio, and SQLite for storing the transcriptions.

Features

Continuous Audio Recording: The app continuously records audio in 30-second intervals, saving each recording as a separate .wav file.
Real-time Transcription: After each recording, the app transcribes the audio using the Whisper ASR model.
Database Storage: The transcriptions are stored in a SQLite database, along with a timestamp and a unique ID for each transcription.
Concurrent Processing: The app uses Python's threading capabilities to record and transcribe audio concurrently, ensuring that no audio is lost between transcriptions.

Installation

Clone this repository.
Install the required Python packages:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Download Whisper

Usage

To start the script, run the record.py script:

python record.py

To start the web app, run the server.py script:

python server.py

The app will start recording audio and transcribing it in real time. The transcriptions will be stored in a SQLite database named transcriptions.db.

Future Improvements

Frontend Dashboard: A frontend dashboard could be added to visualize the transcriptions in real time. This dashboard could use a modern frontend framework like React or Vue.js, and it could fetch the transcriptions from the SQLite database using a REST API.
Sentiment Analysis: The transcriptions could be analyzed for sentiment using a sentiment analysis API or library. This could provide insights into the tone of the spoken text.
Speech-to-Text API: The Whisper ASR model could be replaced with a speech-to-text API for potentially more accurate transcriptions. This would require modifications to the transcribe.py script.
