# Project overview
The Related Items project enables users to transcribe speech
and lookup related items (e.g. lecture slides or a wikipedia article)
via an easy to use interface from within a BigBlueButton conference.
For that purpose BigBlueButton was connected to
the speech recognition software Kaldi. The transcribed text is available to
all participants in the meeting. Futhermore, information sources (called indices)
were connected to BigBlueButton, therefore enabling all users to search
for terms that have been mentioned during the talk quickly.
