Abstract
To embrace the coming age of rich Internet applications and to enrich applications with voice, we propose a Voice Internet Persona (VIP) service. Unlike current text-to-speech (TTS) applications, in which users need to painstakingly install TTS engines in their own machines and do all customizations by themselves, our VIP service consists of a simple, easy-to-use platform that enables users to voice-empower their content, such as podcasts or voice greeting cards. We offer three user interfaces for users to create and tune new VIPs with built-in tools, share their VIPs via this new platform, and generate expressive speech content with selected VIPs. The goal of this work is to popularize TTS features to additional scenarios such as entertainment and gaming with the easy-to-access VIP platform. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
