Audio Adaptor & Method

Audio Adaptor and Method is a device that enables people with speech impairments to use text-to-speech apps more easily during telephone calls. This invention was accepted for a U.S. Patent in March 2017.

Research topics

accessibility, audio adapters, mobile apps, text-to-speech

The desired outcomes for Audio Adaptor and Method For Assistive Text-To-Speech (TTS) Apps were to integrate functions in one device that existed previously only in separate devices and with non-obvious means to combine them: (1) attenuation and mixing line-level audio produced by a TTS app into a phone call such that both the app user and the person listening on the other end can hear it; and (2) mixing mic-level audio from a speaking person into the same call such that both parties can hear it.
