Details from sources

Zilog Z80 (64 KB ROM/RAM); separate speech-recognition co-processor (proprietary firmware, reports recognised word + confidence to the Z80); Votrax speech-synthesis chip driven by a licensed text-to-speech algorithm. Video originally on RCA CED, redesigned late in development to use an unbadged Pioneer LaserDisc player after RCA discontinued CED. Game firmware on 16 KB ROM cartridges. Headset microphone for voice input (noise-cancelling); player says 'Yes'/'No' plus a name and the system otherwise requires per-player voice training. Designer: Rick Dyer.
