VNUNet.com: Microsoft has teamed up with embedded speech and text-to-voice provider Svox to develop speech technology for use in cars.
A new generation of in-vehicle speech options will be designed to meet the automotive industry’s growing demand for complex, multi-lingual and high quality text-to-speech platforms, according to Microsoft.
The companies argue that, working together, they will be able to turn around projects much faster than the typical automotive industry’s product development cycle.
Martin Thall, general manager of Microsoft’s Automotive Business Unit, said: “Svox text-to-speech enhances the user experience of automotive infotainment systems”.
