Making of DAISY Talking book on mobile phone: A concept and architecture

The DAISY Talking Book, like analog talking books, renders the audio in human or synthetic voice. Additionally, the DAISY Talking Book can contain image files, text files, and navigator capability that offering a wide range of features in order to provide services to a broader audience, including deaf and hearing impaired people. However, the cost associated with making the DAISY Talking Book is very high and there are also other problems in that it is time consuming to develop and requires a number of volunteers. The impact of these factors led the researchers to develop the DAISY talking book development application on mobile phone. The development application describes a mobile application that enables the interactive online preparation and presentation of Daisy talking books. It can interact with users as well as recognize and record voices for conversion of human voices to use with the DAISY Talking Book. The system features and user friendly interface comprise an environment for creating DAISY talking books easily. This is a novel application design for usability without requiring extensive computer skills and utilizes ubiquitous mobile platforms. These aspects combine to improve access to and convenient, inexpensive participation in Daisy talking book development.
