This document discusses deploying mobile total conversation applications to enable equal access to communication technologies for people with disabilities. Total conversation allows simultaneous use of video, audio, and text for sign language, lip reading, and texting. It is based on open standards and can be used for both everyday calls and emergency calls. The Reach112 project piloted this across Europe to improve accessibility of emergency services through relay calling and direct 112 emergency calls using total conversation. International testing showed standards-based total conversation can provide interoperable communication across borders. While mobile networks pose challenges like packet loss, total conversation on smartphones can provide wireless access to sign language calls and emergency services equivalent to voice calls for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
LIFI TECHNOLOGY? LiFi (light fidelity) is a bidirectional wireless system that transmits data via LED or infrared light. It was first unveiled in 2011 and, unlike wifi, which uses radio frequency, LiFi technology only needs a light source with a chip to transmit an internet signal through light waves.
The current presentation presents the approach followed for the derivation of the Use Cases developed in the context of ÆGIS Integrating Project (Grant Agreement: 224348) of the 7th Framework Programme, which constitute the core outputs of the user needs phase of the project, together with the Personas and the conceptual models, setting the basis for the upcoming development and evaluation phases of the project. ÆGIS aims to embed support for accessibility through the development of an Open Accessibility Framework (OAF), upon which, open source accessibility interfaces and applications for the users as well as accessibility toolkits for the developers will be built. Within ÆGIS, three mainstream markets are targeted, namely the desktop, rich Internet applications and mobile devices/applications market segments. The Use Cases developed address all three application areas, targeted by ÆGIS. The User Centred Design (UCD) plan defined from the early beginning of the initiative constituted the cornerstone of the work for the Use Cases, Personas and conceptual models. Following this plan, the project Use Cases have built on the outcomes of the field trials and the workshops (national and Pan-European), where a representative sample of all ÆGIS targeted user groups has participated and the valuable expertise of the ÆGIS Consortium members. Following a concrete development methodology, 36 Use Cases (12 for desktop, 15 for mobile and 9 for rich Internet applications), accompanied by Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams, 17 Personas covering all major target groups of the project and 13 conceptual models, which are mapped to the Use Cases, have emerged. The Use Cases will be further elaborated to specific application scenarios that will orient the evaluation to take place in ÆGIS in three iterative phases and across 4 Pilot sites (Belgium, Spain, Sweden and in the UK). The Use Cases are seen as working document, which may be subject to updates and revisions throughout the project, following and keeping up with the progress noticed in ÆGIS project and the overall open source accessibility community.

New Business Opportunities created by the IoT Explosion - WebRTCSummit - San...telestax
From telemedicine to smart cars, digital homes and industrial monitoring, the explosive growth of IoT has created exciting new business opportunities for real time calls and messaging. This presentation will share some of the new revenue sources that IoT created for Restcomm - the open source telephony platform from Telestax.
From telemedicine to smart cars, digital homes and industrial monitoring, the explosive growth of IoT has created exciting new business opportunities for real time calls and messaging.
In the era of digital transformation, speech data collection has emerged as a pivotal element in advancing voice technology. This process involves gathering and analyzing spoken language from various sources to train and improve speech recognition systems, virtual assistants, and other voice-enabled applications.
The Importance of Speech Data Collection
Speech data collection is crucial for developing accurate and efficient voice recognition systems. By analysing a diverse range of speech samples, developers can enhance the ability of these systems to understand and interpret different accents, dialects, and languages. This not only improves user experience but also expands the accessibility of voice technology to a broader audience.
Methods of Speech Data Collection
Field Recording: This involves capturing speech in natural settings, such as homes or public places, to collect authentic and diverse samples.
Controlled Recording: In this method, participants are asked to read or speak predetermined phrases in a controlled environment, ensuring clarity and consistency.
Crowdsourcing: Leveraging the power of the internet, speech data can be collected from a large number of volunteers globally, providing a vast and varied dataset.
Telephony Data: Call centres and helplines are rich sources of speech data, offering samples of real-life interactions and various speech patterns.
Challenges in Speech Data Collection
While speech data collection is essential for voice technology, it also presents several challenges:
Privacy Concerns: Ensuring the privacy and security of participants' data is paramount, requiring strict adherence to data protection regulations.
Data Quality: Maintaining high-quality audio recordings is crucial for accurate analysis, necessitating noise reduction and clear speech capture techniques.
Diversity: Collecting speech data that represents a wide range of languages, accents, and dialects is challenging but necessary for creating inclusive voice technologies.
Future Prospects
As voice technology continues to evolve, speech data collection will play a vital role in its advancement. Innovations in machine learning and artificial intelligence will further enhance the accuracy and efficiency of speech recognition systems. The future holds the promise of more personalised and context-aware voice assistants, improved accessibility for non-native speakers, and the expansion of voice technology into new domains.
Conclusion
Speech data collection is the backbone of voice technology development. It enables the creation of systems that can understand and interact with users naturally and effortlessly. As technology advances, the importance of collecting diverse and high-quality speech data will only increase, paving the way for more innovative and accessible voice-enabled applications.

visually challenged people. These people find it difficult to use the conventional computer access devices
like the keyboard, the mouse or the monitor as these devices require a good hand-eye co-ordination. Our
framework is designed to take DTMF input from the user that serve as commands for execution of different
operations on the computer and provide output in the form of voice using speech synthesis. Additionally,
our framework provides the benefit of customizing it as per user needs as it is based on the open source
