A method for enabling a person who cannot talk but who is familiar with use of anonym moveable picture communication to autonomously communicate speech sound automatically in a sequence, and may include: choosing a plurality of selected encoded tags that are transitionable between a ready mode in which the tag is proximate to an associated tag reader and a go mode in which the tag is in operative association with the associated tag reader. In the go mode, the selected plurality of the encoded tags are read in a sequence to provide a series of coded signals, a sound file corresponding to the series of coded signals is transmitted to an audio output device to convert the sound file automatically into the speech sound.

Interactive speech synthesizer for enabling people who cannot talk but who are familiar with use of anonym moveable picture communication to autonomously communicate using verbal language

The present invention is a method and system for autonomous learning of Braille by an unsighted user. The system allows the unsighted user to pass a card over an RFID reader so as to trigger an audible response that is indicative of an indicia (Braille word or character) embossed on the card. The embossed card further comprises an RFID tag and a series of raised indicia surfaces representative of a Braille-based word or character. The tag transmits a signal indicative of the word or character to the receiving (via receiver) micro-controller which will convert the signal to an audible tone to be transmitted through an output device. The system has a memory which holds a library of tones corresponding to a signal to be converted. An autonomous record mode allows the system user to record an audio input to be stored in the library, or utilize an interface port, or removable memory, for downloading an input.
