Non-acoustic sensors detect speech without sound 09 April 2005 by David Hambling Magazine issue 2494. Subscribe and save
JUST think how eerie it would be, yet also how peaceful - people all around having conversations on their mobile phones,Office 2007 Standard Key, but without uttering a sound.
Thanks to some military research,Windows Product Key, this social nirvana just might come true. DARPA,Buy Office Standard 2007, the US Department of Defense's research agency,Office 2010 Standard X86, is working on a project known as Advanced Speech Encoding,Office 2010 Standard, aimed at replacing microphones with non-acoustic sensors that detect speech via the speaker's nerve and muscle activity, rather than sound itself.
One system, being developed for DARPA by Rick Brown of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts, relies on a sensor worn around the neck called a tuned electromagnetic resonator collar (TERC). Using sensing techniques developed for magnetic resonance imaging, the collar detects changes in capacitance caused by movement of the vocal cords, and is designed to allow speech to be heard above loud background noise.
DARPA is also pursuing an approach first developed at ...
