IBM did make a voice recognition board for a while, as part of their
grandiose office-automation plans, but it was a big flop and finally
withdrawn from market. There may actually be some out there though.
Texas Instruments has a nice recognition/response board.  Your
friend will need to have such variables as whether this is a speaker-
dependent/independent system, will allow/require training, vocabulary
size, etc, before being able to properly evaluate the alternatives.
The minimum buy-in on recognition is about $1k, but of course, you
can spend as much as you want.  Anything affordable will probably
NOT recognise connected speech.  If you need this, you're instantly
in the $20k range...
