[June 13, 2012] Nuance's Dragon voice technology to power PlaySay language learning app Tweet Jun 13, 2012 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- Nuance Communications, Inc., a provider of voice and language solutions, has announced that PlaySay language learning app has integrated Nuance's Dragon voice technology via the NDEV Mobile developer program, which provides developers access to Nuance's voice recognition and text-to-speech technology for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. With Nuance's Dragon voice recognition and text-to-speech technologies, PlaySay evaluates users' pronunciation and provides feedback, as well as enables conversations between people who are interested in a fun, social way to learn a new language. "Through Dragon's voice technology, the gaming, social and educational elements of PlaySay come together to promote an engaging user experience," said Matt Revis, vice president and general manager, handset business, Nuance Mobile. "As the NDEV Mobile developer program rapidly expands, we're thrilled to see a diverse range of apps like PlaySay take advantage of Dragon to provide a unique, fun and intuitive way of engaging consumers." Nuance's Dragon Mobile SDK available as part of the NDEV Mobile developer program lets developers bring voice-enabled apps to market, even if they have never implemented speech technology. Nuance's mobile voice technology, featured as part of the Dragon Mobile SDK and Dragon Mobile Apps family, brings the power of Dragon Naturally Speaking to a variety of applications and services supporting a range of languages. http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
