To make the impossible possible.

This team remains closely tied to Ubuntu Accessibility

SpeechControl is an application that is to be designed to eventually be integrated into any Ubuntu distro (and possibly into any Linux system). It is to incorporate another means of input for the end-user who may be one of a disability or medical ailment. Thus, SpeechControl is to be a powerful accessibility component for Linux systems.

Keep effort to a minimum, re-use existing technology Solve potential issues Build an Accessible application to preform tasks by speech (or normal input) Have the results returned to the user (with information overload protection).

Long term: startrek like communications, dictate a document etc.

SpeechControl will be able to accomplish the following:

• Speech Synthesis: More commonly known at TTS (Text-To-Speech), the voice that communicates with the end-user will be as natural and inviting as technology permits.

• Speech recognition: Using the available tools at our disposal, SpeechControl will be able to comprehend your spoken word.

• Virtual Assistant: Repetitive task guidance improve for faster and smoother process execution.
