An MIT research group has made some breakthroughs in artificial speech by using sensor-plated dentures to detect the necessary pressure that the tongue exerts in order to produce sound.
"Knowing the pressure the tongue exerts on the teeth during some speech, for example when making a "T" sound, has been particularly difficult, says Payan. "This closure of the vocal tract allows you to pronounce this consonant," he explains. "To model this, you have to be able to estimate the level of force applied by the tongue.""
