NABLING SPEECH SYNTHESIS
Thanks to the speech synthesis, you can make the IRISPen speak
out the recognized data for you*. Just scan some data and the
computer reads it out for you!
(*) The speech synthesis feature is available in English.
Practically, you will no longer need to look up to the screen to
verify your recognition results. Think how useful this will be when
encoding new data, entering data into your bookkeeping, etc. The
IRISPen will also be a valued tool when learning a foreign
language: the computer will pronounce all new words for you, etc.
At any moment in time, you can also have the software repeat the
pronounced lines. The IRISPen will always repeat the last utterance.
Tip:
Speech synthesis applies to all legible data
Speech synthesis not only applies to text but to all legible data such as
handprinting, numeric data, and barcodes. You can thus activate the speech to
get an auditive feedback of any type of data.
Tip:
Do not enable the speech feature unless you really intend to use it. The
recognition actually slows down as you wait for the recognized data to be
read aloud.
Tip:
If you intend to read whole sentences, do not forget to select the scanning
mode Multiple lines. This will ensure a natural prosody and a good
intonation.
To activate the speech synthesis:
• Make sure that English has been selected as recognition
language. See: Basic parameters, Selecting the language.
