Software enhances voice recognition

VRE helps create more effective speech recognition systems by ensuring that such systems receive the highest quality of voice signal.

Cambridge company NCT has released a new version of its VRE voice recognition enhancement software.

Speech recognition is widely used in telecomms products such as mobile phones and conferencing equipment and is increasingly being integrated into automotive telematics systems to enable voice instruction features.

NCT has been at the forefront of developing this type of software during the past 10 years.

NCT's VRE solution helps create more effective speech recognition systems by ensuring that such systems receive the highest quality of voice signal.

VRE consists of noise cancellation, echo cancellation and equalisation technology and is able to considerably reduce background noise, voice and echo and ensure that the voice signal is in the best possible shape to be deciphered by the speech recognition system.

"We are very proud of this technology", said Gillian Davis, Managing Director.

"The real challenge here is being able to remove the noise and echo without causing distortion to the original voice signal".

"I'm sure our latest version of VRE will be attractive to anyone working to develop future speech recognition systems, especially in the automotive market where we have so much experience".
