VOICE demonstrates
how the use of speech recognition systems in conversation, conferences
and school lessons, can be translated on-line into PC screen messages
ISIS is developping prototype interfaces for an easier use of
commercial products, taking into account the requirements of people
with hearing impairments. It is also investigating the use of
this technology in television broadcasts and telephone calls.
The aim is to develop awareness in the field among users, system
producers and services providers, by organising and presenting
VOICE at international workshop and congresses and creating a
VOICE Forum on the internet. The prototype has been used to produce
life subtitling of part of the VOICE Workshops and User Group
Meetings.
