<p>The present invention relates to an information device, which converts those data stored in the form of digital signs in a memory device into analog signs audible to the ear like human voice, thereby facilitating the availability of a vast quantity of information through reproduction into voice of the literal text input by the computer keyboard, data recorded in voice of information printed in type in books or magazines, and such other data originally in letters but rendered digital by means of the scanner and optical character reader (OCR). The apparatus for reproducing digital voice of the present invention consists of a memory medium and a reproduction device proper, the data stored in the memory medium being information converted into human voice, literal data input by the computer keyboard, vocal data in human voice, and such other literal data as are converted from type into digital signs by the scanner and optical character reader. For the memory medium, such semiconductor memories as ROM (Read Only Memory), flash memory, and FRAM (ferroelectrics random access memory) along with such other recording media as compact disks can be made use of.</p> |
