I use vosk. It's a python library for voice recognition in multiple language. There is a wrapper for node js! It's great for offline recognition. Only must be download the model here (https://alphacephei.com/vosk/models) and then send the path of the unzipped model in your code like this demo (MODEL_PATH): https://github.com/alphacep/vosk-api/blob/master/nodejs/demo/test_microphone.js

I tried it in node js 16 and it works great Happy code! ;)

You can try Picovoice. Depending on what you want the robot to do you can use the wake word, speech-to-intent, or speech-to-text.

This issue is a bit stale, so I thought I'd add a more up-to-date answer:

CMUSphinx is great if you have something powerful enough to run it, but if you are on an embedded device like the Pi or the CHIP it can be quite slow.

One alternative is Sonus which has offline hotword detection and then uses Google Cloud Speech for streaming results.

There is a node module for CMUSphinx

https://github.com/cmusphinx/node-pocketsphinx

It works offline. It's a bit initial state but let me know if you have questions on it.
