| CommPower is using Wizzard's AT&T Natural Voices for Server Edition Software Development Kit offering in their CommPower Text-to-Speech Broadcasting System™ (CTBS). Founded in October of 1984, CommPower specializes in the development and deployment of secure and reliable message handling systems and gateways as well as unique systems solutions to real world problems. CommPower creates solutions for the United States Defense Department, NATO allies, the National Weather Service (NWS), the FAA, the U.S. intelligence community, European and Canadian prime government contractors. Headquartered in Camarillo, CA, CommPower maintains a technical support office in Dublin, Ireland, providing local assistance to their customers in Western Europe. CTBS runs on a desktop or server PC (Windows 2K and XP) that would typically connect to the customer's local area network. The primary function of CTBS is to read ASCII text messages from pre-defined directories and convert the ASCII text messages into high quality digitized voice (WAV) files using AT&T's Natural Voices TTS engine. The digitized (WAV) files are stored in their respective directories and subsequently scheduled for broadcast (output) to internal voice processing boards and/or transferred to external destinations (via the local area network). CTBS assigns a separate server process to each of the available voice types (English, Spanish, German, French, Korean). The individual server processes allow CTBS to successfully perform simultaneous ASCII-to-WAV file conversions. For each ASCII text message, a client process is initialized that communicates with the applicable (language, gender) server process. When conversion is complete the applicable client process is terminated. |
