Voice output communication aid
- Voice output communication aid
A Voice Output Communication Aid creates audible speech or readable text for someone who cannot speak. A computer system used for this purpose is called a speech synthesizer, and can be implemented in software or hardware. A text-to-speech (TTS) system converts normal language text into speech; other systems render symbolic linguistic representations like phonetic transcriptions into speech.
