Application of speech technology<\/h2>\n\n

In the Digi Teacher product, high-performance speech technology<\/strong><\/a> from the CLST will be applied. This speech technology enables not only the recognition of words in a user’s speech, but also more subtle abnormalities that may indicate problems in reading aloud or producing speech. <\/p>\n\n

‘We work with innovative scientific research on sustainable solutions to current problems in the socially important sectors of education and health care,’ said linguist Helmer Strik, affiliated with Radboud University.<\/p>\n\n
