Pull Request Overview

This PR adds a new ROS2 audio processing node that enables Speech-to-Text (STT) functionality using OpenVINO. The implementation processes audio files (MP4 and WAV) and converts them to text using a wav2vec2 model.

  • Adds complete ROS2 package structure with setup files and linting tests
  • Implements audio processor node with OpenVINO-based STT processing
  • Supports multiple audio formats with preprocessing pipeline

The class is missing a docstring. Add a docstring to describe the purpose of this audio processing node and its functionality.

Suggested change
class AudioProcessorNode(Node):
class AudioProcessorNode(Node):
"""
A ROS2 node for audio processing that loads an OpenVINO speech-to-text model,
processes audio files (WAV or MP4), performs inference, and publishes the
transcribed text to a ROS2 topic.
Functionality includes:
- Extracting audio from MP4 or reading WAV files.
- Preprocessing audio for model input.
- Running inference using OpenVINO.
- Postprocessing model output to text.
- Publishing results to the 'stt_output' topic.

Hard-coded absolute path makes the code non-portable. Consider using a relative path or making this configurable through a ROS parameter.

Division by zero will occur if audio_data contains only zeros. Add a check to prevent division by zero.

Suggested change
audio_data = audio_data / np.max(np.abs(audio_data))
max_val = np.max(np.abs(audio_data))
if max_val == 0:
self.get_logger().warning("Audio data contains only zeros; skipping normalization to avoid division by zero.")
else:
audio_data = audio_data / max_val

The postprocess_result method returns a placeholder string instead of implementing actual text conversion logic. This should be implemented to properly decode the model output.

Hard-coded absolute path in main function makes the code non-portable. Consider making this configurable or removing the hard-coded test call.

Generic license declaration should be replaced with the actual license name (e.g., 'Apache-2.0' to match package.xml).
