INFORMATION ABOUT OUR TECHNOLOGY.

THE BY VOICE PLUG-IN.

Most By Voice services require the installation of a navigator plug-in in the user’s computer. When the user accesses a website that includes a By Voice service, the page detects whether the user has the plug-in installed. If this is not the case, it offers the user the possibility of installing it automatically. The process only takes a few seconds.

At present, we have plug-in versions for the following platforms.

	Internet Explorer	Mozilla Firefox
Windows	Yes	Yes
Linux	(Not available)	Yes (*)
Mac	No	No

(*)For now, the Linux version does not incorporate voice recognition features.

You may obtain more information about installing the plug-in with this link:

SPEECH SYNTHESIS.

By Voice speech synthesis services work by using a By Voice plug-in. If the plug-in is not used, these services are played through the Media Player or any other audio plug-in for navigators. The By Voice plug-in has the advantage of allowing for a greater optimization of resources. This makes it more economical to use than others. In addition, our plug-in makes it possible to provide better fraud control for the service, and therefore the real cost can be adjusted to benefit our clients.

Operation Scheme:

1.The website communicates with the plug-in through a script language to indicate which file should be played.
2. The plug-in (whether it is a By Voice plug-in or not) communicates with our server to obtain the audio file. This file can be pre-recorded and stored in our server, or it can be generated when the request is made. This produces an effect of voice synthesis in real time, usually a matter of a few tenths of a second.
3. The plug-in plays the downloaded audio file.

4. If the By Voice plug-in is used, the page will obtain more notifications of events related to the audio playing to have more control over its use. For example, you can control it once it has finished downloading once the playback has begun, etc.

SPEECH RECOGNITION.

By Voice speech recognition services require the use of the By Voice plug-in. By Voice is a patent pending technology that now makes it easy and economical to include speech recognition on a website.
Operation Scheme:
1. The user speaks through a microphone, and the By Voice plug-in listens until it detects that the user has stopped talking.
2. The plug-in processes and sends the information to the By Voice servers in a compressed format.
3. The By Voice server analyzes the audio signal and determines the most probable answer given by the user according to the page being viewed.

4. The plug-in receives the result from the By Voice servers and communicates this to the website. The website, in turn, processes the result through a script language and acts according to what the website programmers have decided.
