rpitalk 1.2
Package Information
| Description | Hardware speech synthesizer emulator for Raspberry Pi rpitalk provides software for turning a Raspberry Pi into a legacy hardware speech synthesizer emulator. It supports emulation of DECtalk-compatible and LiteTalk-compatible devices and implements their serial command protocols. rpitalk is intended for use on a Raspberry Pi with a USB OTG (gadget) port, where it listens on a virtual serial device and uses Speech Dispatcher as a backend, allowing screen readers or other software on a host computer to produce speech through a modern text-to-speech engine. It can also be used on other machines with a standard serial port if desired. The emulator may be configured using /etc/rpitalk/emulator.conf and supports multiple emulation modes selectable at runtime. |
