Roger Ebert and TTS

By Adam B. on March 4, 2010

Hey Speech-Heads,

Check out this great use of TTS:

Movie Critic Roger Ebert–who is recovering from a serious bout with thyroid cancer that rendered him speechless–has been using TTS to communicate.  However, Ebert’s TTS recently got a new voice–his own.  His new voice by CereProc is programmed from collected audio clips and snippets from the movie critic’s many television appearances and DVD commentaries.

Check out this Esquire Article for more information.

And check out Ebert’s appearance on Oprah for his 2010 Oscar Picks.
