Hier ein nettes fast fertiges Spielzeug:
3DOB ist (wird) ein auf einfache Bedienung ausgelegter 3D Modeller und Animator.
Das Aussergewöhnliche daran sind eingebaute Text-To-Speech Engine und Voice-Builder Tools
mit der man sogar aus eigenen Stimmaufnahmen TTS Voice-Files entwickeln kann!
Die vorliegende Test Version !! ist in der Entwicklungsphase (Alpha) und bis 1. Januar 2008 lauffähig.
Zitat
- Easy to use
- Flexible enough to allow you to experiment with different ideas
- Fast to use, allowing you to produce scenes and animations in hours not days.
3D Outside the Box (aka "3D for Mere Mortals") is a 3D modelling application designed
for people who want to create quality 3D images and animations without having to get
a degree in a 3D application.
3DOB specializes in:
Landscapes
Houses and buildings
Interiors
Characters
Animations
3D Outside the Box includes a text-to-speech synthesizer that speaks text that's typed into it.
You can use it to generate speech for your animations.
The text-to-speech engine in 3DOB differs from other text-to-speech engines on the market because it supports:
Transplanted prosody - Much of the reason text-to-speech sounds bad is because it doesn't
get the "prosody" (pitch, timing, and volume) of a sentence correct. TTS fails so miserably
at this because in order to do prosody correctly, the computer must understand what it's saying.
Unfortunately, computers are a long way from this. However, a tool in the mXac
Natural Langauge Editor lets you "transplant" the prosody from a recorded voice onto a
text-to-speech voice, greatly improving the quality. It basically turns text-to-speech into a
very efficient audio compression scheme, with bit rates only a couple times higher than raw text.
As a comparison: The best voice-audio compression techniques produce a bit-rate of about
36 kBytes/minute. Raw text is about 0.3 kByte/minute compressed.
Transplanted prosody is around 2 kBytes/minute compressed.
Customize a voice - The included tools let you customize an existing text-to-speech voice,
changing the way it sounds, how it emphasizes words (prosody), and even add an accent.
Lets you make your own voice - You can use the included tools to record your own voice and
make a text-to-speech voice that sounds (mostly) like you. This is a fair amount of work,
requiring 40-80 hours of work for a quality voice, although you can have it speaking haltedly
in only an hour or two. Unfortunately, I only have a lexicon for English, so if you wish to create
a non-English voice you need to find or create a lexicon for your language, which is even more work...
just imagine entering pronunciations for the 10,000 most common words in your language.
If you do make your own voice or lexicon, E-mail me so I can link to it from this page.
