I'd like to announce the release of an open source connector bridge for Asterisk and UniMRCP.

The connector bridge is an implementation of Asterisk's Generic Speech API using UniMRCP client stack. This module allows Asterisk to connect to MRCPv2 or MRCPv1 compliant servers for speech recognition. It also allows to offload Asterisk using client/server architecture MRCP provides. Moreover, all the speech applications, which are written on top of Generic Speech API now can be easily used via MRCP too.

The complete package, which includes everything required for UniMRCP integrated Asterisk deployment, is now available for download

The open development model with community driven initiatives is what I started UniMRCP with and entered the open source world for. The integration with powerful telephony platforms such as Asterisk would allow the project to further evolve and accelerate.

I have been asked many times for such an integration. Now it's your turn to give it a try, provide feedback and help carefully test and evolve the solution.

Thanks for using UniMRCP,
