+====Tangible Interface for Speech Banking====
+Supervisor: Professor M. Baljko
+Required Background: CSE3461
+Recommended Background: Micro controller (Arduino) programming or a willingness and aptitude to learn
+Description: Voice banking involves the gathering of speech samples from an individual's speech to form an acoustic model that is subsequently used in a speech synthesis module.  This allows for the synthesis of speech that resembles the individual's speech (for example, once the individual loses his or her voice due to the progression of disease). Current systems require the user to spend hours sitting in front of the computer, recording samples of prompted speech. In this project, a wireless tangible interface will be designed to work with existing voice banking software. The interface will be placed in the individual's everyday environment and will unobtrusively prompt, elicit and gather speech samples.
