Industry case studies of adapting TTS for smooth interactions
Overview
This paper reviews recent text-to-speech (TTS) research and addresses the scarcity of production-level adaptive TTS systems for users with specialized listening needs. The authors describe implementing changes to TTS systems based on prior research and report qualitative results from two case studies in real-world human-robot interaction (HRI) settings: an older adult care home and a noisy airport environment. Results indicate that relatively simple modifications to the robot's speech pitch, duration, and intensity offer promising directions for improving HRI, providing a framework for larger, formal studies.
