Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for acoustic output of text and a speech system that has an acoustic Text output allowed.
- the acoustic is from the published patent application DE 195 03 419 A1 Output of digitally coded traffic reports using known synthetically generated language.
- Location related words are sent to a speech synthesis facility in that language forwarded in the related sentences were taken from a memory.
- An adaptation of foreign language Words made to the sound of the associated sentences through a prosody conversion.
- the speech output system illustrated in Figure 1 is in integrated a multifunction control panel of a motor vehicle, with which a car radio, a mobile phone, a navigation system and air conditioning can be controlled.
- a microprocessor 1 has a text memory 2, in which it is a RAM. Via a telephone module or Cellular unit 3, the microprocessor 1 can wirelessly send messages received, such as an email or fax.
- a user By operating a single control element, a user can for example one marked with the letter "E" Push button, the microprocessor 1 cause one Establish a connection with his mailbox at the internet provider and check incoming emails. The received one Text is then stored in text memory 2 and without further User action issued.
- the mobile radio unit 3 receives a fax
- the Microprocessor 1 successively loads the one stored in text memory 2 Words and converts them into digitized phonemes, that is, a sequence of sounds or syllables.
- the digitized phonemes are output to an output system, that from a digital / analog converter 4, an audio amplifier 5 and at least one speaker 6.
- the digital / analog converter 4 converts the digitized phonemes to analog voice signal, which is from the audio amplifier 5 amplified to a volume desired by the user and from Speaker 6 is played acoustically.
- the microprocessor 1 examines a text for the occurrence of keywords and typical letter combinations in those languages in which he uses a language conversion algorithm disposes.
- keywords are Salutations and greetings, such as “Dear”, “Mr.”, “Mrs.”, “Dear”, “Cher”, “Chère”, etc.
- pronouns and conjunctions words based on a language can be easily identified. Similar thing applies to typical character combinations or abbreviations such as "H.”, "Mr.”, “F.”, “Fr.”, “Mr.”, “Ms.”, “M.”, “Mme”.
- the microprocessor guides languages, after getting the first keyword or the first typical Assign the character combination to a specific language could continue his search in the text. Contradictions occur so that more than one language is identified based on the characteristic words or characters recognized a majority decision is made. Narrator is then done in the language that is most common was recognized in the text. This also leads to typing errors not a misinterpretation of language.
- Figure 2 shows a speech system in which an additional digital signal processor 7 and a screen 8 for additional optical information output are provided.
- the mobile radio unit 3 receives a text message and transfers it them to the microprocessor 1. This directs the text into the text memory 2 further.
- the digital signal processor 7 examines the text for characteristic Words and combinations of characters in the Available languages and chooses for language conversion the associated language conversion algorithm.
- the synthetic generated phonemes are the signal processor 7 to the Output system 4, 5, 6 further.
- the digital signal processor performs the message for a fax 7 in a first step a text recognition, only then to check the language of the text and convert the recognized characters into phonemes.
