Real time note recognition software
Well, voice recognition takes voice input and output text. Can you take sound input and output sheet music (or midi file)? (and please don't refer me to software recommendations; just don't)

Imagine a quiet room and a person playing simple melody on piano (just one note at a time). The result are the music notes recognized.

I would take software recommendations but the minute I say it officially, the question will be flagged as out of topic.

DIGITAL MUSIC TRANSCRIPTION

Computers are used to transcribe music, divided broadly into 2 categories -

Traditional (refer to the answer by piiperi Reinstate Monica)
Artificial Intelligence (A.I)

MUSIC TRANSCRIPTION using A.I.

PIANO SCRIBE - link

A FREE, browser based app developed using Google's TensorFlow module Magenta, it...

...converts raw audio to MIDI using... a neural network trained for polyphonic piano transcription. Record yourself playing piano or choose an audio file with solo piano from your device to transcribe!

Just upload an audio file and it will process it into downloadable MIDI which you can preview on the browser itself.

Imagine a quiet room and a person playing simple melody on piano (just one note at a time). The result are the music notes recognised.

Paino Scribe can tackle this situation perfectly as it uses state-of-art Machine Learning (Onset and Frames) to decipher pitch information from an audio and convert it into corresponding MIDI data.

you can watch a demo here.

Opinion

I upload audio and it has worked wonders for me. If your solo piano audio is clean, you'll get a near perfect MIDI output.

Know more about Magenta here and some other cool A.I based musical demos and tools here.

Yes, but at the present state of the art, not very well except for very simple musical input. As you don't want to know which currently-available software makes the best attempt, that's about all I can say.

If you want this for entering music into applications using your acoustic instrument, several apps have this.

Ableton Live has features "Convert Harmony to New MIDI Track" (polyphonic), "Convert Melody to New MIDI Track" (monophonic for melody lines), and "Convert Drums to New MIDI Track" which tries to make drum hits from your audio. See www.ableton.com/en/manual/converting-audio-to-midi/ The polyphonic harmony converter works to some extent with any audio material, but with complete recorded and mixed songs you'll have to clean up the notes a lot.
The Finale notation software has an audio note entry tool called MicNotator www.finalemusic.com/ The Reaper DAW has something for this, no idea how well it works wiki.cockos.com/wiki/index.php/Use_Reatune_to_write_audio_to_midi Any application that has a MIDI input can be used with Jam Origin MIDI Guitar 2 www.jamorigin.com/ ... and some plugin-application audio/MIDI routing hack-arounds. Once you get the routing working, it works incredibly well.

The Transcribe! application can help in "converting" as well, but that's not really what it's meant for. Good tool anyway. www.seventhstring.com/
In addition to those, there are many more options, which you can find with internet search engines such as Google or DuckDuckGo.

Yes, this possible. What you need is a microphone (the device of your tablet or pc will do) a software that recognizes the note pitch and the note length and transforms wave- to midi data (adsr-parameters).

Problems may arise in assigning the rhythm (quantization and measure assignment) and differing the voices in chords and polyphony.
