VoiceSignal, the leading provider of speech solutions for mobile devices, demonstrated the speech synthesis research project in Woburn, Massachusetts, USA.

Called VSpeak (T.M.) the new technology approach for embedded speech synthesis for mobile phones will hit the market of mobile phones later this year.

VSpeak (T.M) - a full text-to-speech (T.T.S) application can read e-mail, text messages, web pages or any other text. The technology consumes only 300 Kilobytes of memory in a mobile phone and has the sound quality, and intelligence of systems requiring more than 20 Megabytes.

This is a big leap for the mobile phone industry, because for the first time a high quality T.T.S system, for reading text messages, and other content, can be deployed in the memory constraints of entry level and mid-tier devices, rather than the highest end smartphones.

T.T.S in mobile phones allows users to listen to incoming text messages or other text without looking at the device. VSpeak will be deployed in all classes of phones, from entry level through Smartphones and will appear in over 20 languages throughout North America, Europe and Asia later this year and into the first quarter of 2006.

For the first time, VoiceSignal has solved the interface problem of mobile phones and PDA’s. Users can speak a name, a number, or a command, and get connected in one step. VoiceSignal's unique architecture is compatible with the entire range of mobile devices -- from entry-level to voice-only handsets.
