Fonix Has FAAST Speech-based Application ToolsBy Bernard Cole SALT LAKE CITY, UT -- A new development environment for implementing voice-based iAppliance applications, called FAAST, is now available from Fonix Inc. It is designed to allow application developers quickly and affordably add voice capabilities to their embedded and small footprint iAppliance designs as well as desktop applications. The framework is comprised of a variety of class libraries in C++ and Java and ActiveX Controls, as well as the Fonix Customized Vocabulary Text-To-Speech Engine, the Unlimited Vocabulary Text-to-Speech Engine and the Multi-lingual Text-to-Speech Engine. The Framework supports selection of any of its installed soundbanks by the desired characteristics of speech, as well as by language, gender, name, technology, name, sample rate, bits per sample and encoding format. It supports Fonix speaker-independent speech recognition engines as well as non-Fonix speech engines for the ability to meet the broadest range of specific end-user requirements. FAAST Framework supports the synthesis of text to a number of audio formats, including supports Linear, A-Law, and u-Law as well as a variety of mechanisms to convert one format to anther. Programmers can control the direction of the audio from synthesis so that it can be processed immediately after synthesis and then be sent where needed. The program also supports the most common XML-based markup languages, including the Java Standard Markup Language (JSML), the SAPI Markup Language (XSML) and the proprietary Fonix Markup Language (FXML).
