Presentations of the VOICE prototype
First meeting of the VOICE-Schools Project
20 February 1998, Ispra (VA)
Joint Research Centre of the European Commission
Institute for Systems, Informatics and Safety
VOICE Laboratory

On the 20th February 1998, a presentation of the VOICE Project and the prototype demonstrator has been organised at JRC-ISIS VOICE Laboratory for 20 schoolteachers and representatives of the Associations of the deaf.

They showed particular interest for the Project, in view of using the prototype in the classroom for allowing deaf students to attend the lessons together with their hearing colleagues.
Tests are also foreseen for the use of the system for subtitling foreign languages lessons for the hearing students.

The Classroom
A slide is projected on the left wall-screen by the speaker, who is speaking into a microphone connected to a PC: the text generated by the speech recognition system is converted into subtitling lines on the PC screen and projected on the right wall-screen, under the speakers image taken by a video-camera.
