Latest Technology Trends
You are in a movie theater or noicy restaurent or a bus etc where there is lot of noice around is big issue while talking on a mobile phone. But in the future this problem is eliminated with ”silent sounds”, a new technology unveiled at the CeBIT fair on Tuesday that transforms lip movements into a computer-generated voice for the listener at the other end of the phone.
The device, developed by the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), uses electromyography, monitoring tiny muscular movements that occur when we speak and converting them into electrical pulses that can then be turned into speech, without a sound uttered.
‘Silent Sound’ technology aims to notice every movements of the lips and transform them into sounds, which could help people who lose voices to speak, and allow people to make silent calls without bothering others. Rather than making any sounds, your handset would decipher the movements your mouth makes by measuring muscle activity, then convert this into speech that the person on the other end of the call can hear. So, basically, it reads your lips.
“We currently use electrodes which are glued to the skin. In the future, such electrodes might for example by incorporated into cellphones,” said Michael Wand, from the KIT.
The technology opens up a host of applications, from helping people who have lost their voice due to illness or accident to telling a trusted friend your PIN number over the phone without anyone eavesdropping — assuming no lip-readers are around.
The technology can also turn you into an instant polyglot. Because the electrical pulses are universal, they can be immediately transformed into the language of the user’s choice.
“Native speakers can silently utter a sentence in their language, and the receivers hear the translated sentence in their language. It appears as if the native speaker produced speech in a foreign language,” said Wand.
The translation technology works for languages like English, French and Gernan, but for languages like Chinese, where different tones can hold many different meanings, poses a problem, he added.
Noisy people in your office? Not any more. “We are also working on technology to be used in an office environment,” the KIT scientist told AFP.
The engineers have got the device working to 99 percent efficiency, so the mechanical voice at the other end of the phone gets one word in 100 wrong, explained Wand.
“But we’re working to overcome the remaining technical difficulties. In five, maybe ten years, this will be useable, everyday technology,” he said.
GOOD IDEA.CAN U TELL IN DETAIL
how it affects the standards of current technology the silent sound technology?

impove it
sir cn u provide m the pdf,ppt,seminar report on this technology,ts urgent
Sir please send me a pdf or ppt about this topic,i want to give a seminar on this topic..
plz send me full details of this topic I want to deliver seminar.plz
[...] Silent Sound Technology: An End To Noisy Communications [...]
respected sir
its really interesting can u send me working principle and report of this…
interesting in knowing complete information regarding silent sound technology. plz give me the detail information about “Silent Sound Technology” , it’s working, advantages, disadvantages, etc……!!!
thanks to da inventors ,u made great a contribution……….
This is great technology. Can I ask one thing, does it work for any language used in lips movement or it works only for English conversation. Can we discuss to buy the device and technology to launch for sales.
It’s very nice to hear asilent sound technology.could u pls send the complete details about how it works screenshots,pdf files and related material
hoping reply early
Hi,
Me and my colleague were discussing a solution for the very same problem that you are targeting. I was amazed and excited to c an article on the same. Eager to know how differently have u tackled this problem.l… Reading lip movement will not be that accurate as of what I know. We have a different approach to it…. Contact me on my mail ID so that we can discuss on the same
Sure it make’s a new revolution .sir,please send the working detail’s it helps for my final year project
pls mail me the working plsss.. lincy.lins@gmail.com

Sir,
I really shocked by reading this article. I am understanding the growth of technology.Its a innovative one.Could you please explain.
sir i didn’t understand d working of dis technology can u plzzz xplain it
plzz provide reqd info for giving paper presentation sir..
Sir this is really amazing technology….!
I have decided this topic i.e “Silent Sound Technology” for seminar as well as for paper presentation.
But i don’t have detail information about this.
I really want all details as early as possible.
Please help me, it’s urgent…!
Reply me on my email

sir,
its really a amazing technology.i want to do my summer interenship in this..please mail me place where i can apply for it.
sir, plz send me details of this topic its really amazing
sir plz send me actual working of this topic
this is incredible ..can u give a few more details on how this works
No doubt its an amazing technology if implemented but it has the negative side of making people lazier even to speak… As technology is advancing, its making people lethargic. Keep this -ve side in somepart of your mind’s room
