14/07/2010 - World's first Austrian text-to-speech voice

CereProc are pleased to announce the release of the world's first commercially-available Austrian text-to-speech voice. The voice, named "Leopold", was developed in a collaboration between CereProc, Vienna-based communications research centre, FTW (http://www.ftw.at), and Speech Concept (http://www.speechconcept.com), CereProc's German partner.

The Leopold voice has already been deployed on the City of Vienna Council website in a service that allows users to have webpages read to them.

The voice can be heard in the live demobar at the top of this page and is available for download from the CereProc store for both Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OSX.
