<br/><br/> Text-To-Speech and Speech-To-Text (TTS&STT) application was a tool that converts SMS text (also known as SMS Language, or Textese, or TxtSpk1) into speech and vice versa. It used the English language as its base language. The conversion process used an SMS dictionary of words ? which were stored in a database file, to contrast every SMS text to an English word or an English word to an SMS text.<br/><br/>TTS&STT was implemented using Microsoft.NET technology and Microsoft Speech Application?s Programming Interface (SAPI). SAPI aided in the conversion process of both speech recognition and text to speech. The conversion technology was built-in of the Speech API and would not be part of the development of this project.<br/><br/>Aside from speech recognition and reading out of text (from a text file, WAV file, or text typed in the user interface) in which the TTS&STT application was capable of, it could also produce a converted SMS text into a text file or into a WAV file. With these types of outputs produced by the TTS&STT application, it could become usable to other applications that rely on speech recognition and text to speech.
