In early 2022, Jenny Nguyen sat down to write a business plan for what would become The Sports Bra.

That’s her one-of-a-kind bar in Portland, Oregon, which only plays women’s sports on its TVs and pulled in nearly $1 million in revenue in its first eight months of business. At the time, it was a hypothetical venture — and Nguyen wasn’t confident that it would work.

Technology Gives a Voice to Those with Speech Disabilities

Based on machine learning and speech recognition algorithms, the AI-powered Voiceitt platform is designed to recognize and translate speech by people with an underlying medical condition, disability or age-related condition that means their speech is hard to understand. The Voiceitt platform is web-based, which means that it can be accessed from any internet-connected device without having to download a program or app. It works either as voice to text or voice to synthesized speech, with the latter allowing the user to speak in person in real time, as part of a face-to-face conversation, or in a virtual, online meeting. https://nocamels.com/2024/01/ai-technology-gives-a-voice-to-those-with-speech-disabilities/
