Texte et Relief's Ugo reads out loud with Acapela High Quality TTS.

September 10th, 2002

Texte et Relief, a provider of reading aid solutions for the visually impaired, has added Acapela 's high quality text-to-speech, Acapela High Quality TTS, to Ugo, its latest reading solution.

Books, magazines, newspapers, mail, Acapela HQ TTS reads any document with a surprisingly natural synthesized voice.

Ugo scans any printed document, processes the contents and translates it into speech using Acapela HQ TTS. In less than 40 seconds, reading begins.

Acapela's synthesis is not only amazingly natural, it also has a very rich prosody which gives meaning to the text in a new way, with all the richness of natural language, for pleasant, comfortable and easy listening.

As easy to use as a cassette player, the user can access all functions of Ugo using only 4 buttons (Play, stop, FF/Rwd, tuning : speed, tone, etc.).
