Text-to-Speech
Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology transforms text into spoken output, enabling
machines to communicate verbally. TTS is widely used in virtual assistants,
audiobooks, and accessibility tools.
Modern TTS systems use neural architectures, such as WaveNet and Tacotron, to
generate high-quality, human-like speech. These systems can mimic natural
prosody, including intonation and rhythm.
Challenges in TTS include handling complex names, multiple languages, and
generating emotionally expressive speech. Personalized voices are also an area
of active research.
TTS enhances accessibility by making content available to visually impaired
users and providing hands-free interaction in various applications.
Future advancements aim for real-time TTS with dynamic emotional expressions to
improve user experience and engagement.
