Vocalizer for Automotive

Vocalizer for Automotive is a total speech output solution for a wide range of automotive applications. It combines a state-of-the-art text-to-speech (TTS) engine, tools and services for enabling applications to handle speech output tasks in an automotive environment.

Vocalizer for Automotive comes with Vocalizer Studio, a comprehensive tuning suite for optimizing and customizing application prompts.

Features

Highly scalable solution
Voice models at different footprints and sampling rates allow you to choose the best quality/footprint option for your application platform.

Easy integration of recorded prompts and TTS
Improved prosody — achieved through seamless integration of carrier prompts with dynamic content readout — results in the best of both worlds: highest sound quality of recorded prompts and maximum flexibility for dynamic content with TTS.

Multi-lingual support
Vocalizer for Automotive is able to read out prompts that include different languages with high accuracy. This feature is important given that Navigation and Music databases typically consist of entries in multiple languages.

Voices and languages configured by data files only
A single, language independent, core engine simplifies porting and testing efforts, especially on embedded platforms. Extra voices and languages can be added later in the development process and can be updated more easily — even during deployment.

Vocalizer Studio
Vocalizer Studio enables high quality prompt tuning, supporting the creation of prompt databases as well as user dictionaries for exception pronunciations.

Industry’s largest language portfolio supporting over 35 languages
Nuance is constantly working to extend and update its text-to-speech portfolio to meet the localized needs of a global audience. Vocalizer for Automotive spoken output solutions support more than 35 languages, including North American, Western European, Eastern European and Asian languages, and feature 48 different voices. In addition, Nuance has developed numerous custom voices to reflect and reinforce the corporate branding of our customers.
