An artificial voice and ear have been developed which are sufficiently close simulations of the real voice and ear in their principal physical attributes to justify their use in both shop and laboratory tests of telephone transmitters and receivers.
The artificial voice and ear have certain advantages in that they can be exactly specified and reproduced and can be used in determining physical characteristics of instruments which are difficult or impossible to obtain with real voices and ears.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
