Dear DCAD,

 

The below event may be of interest to some.

I would particularly be interested in feedback from a person who is deaf / hard of hearing on results of UDtalk.

 

Best,

Content
UDtalk is an application to enable people to use cutting-edge voice recognition technology.

With "UDTalk keyboard" and "UDTalk text input," you can speak to input any text. Additionally, it can be used for various purposes such as displaying summaries by working with ChatGPT. This time, we would like to introduce the new features of UD Talk that have been implemented recently and discuss how we can make use of them in various ways, not just for communication.
