Abstract
A system for synthesizing speech is described. It consists of an electronic synthesizer controlled by a small digital computer. The computer uses stored rules to convert a phonetic input into the analogue voltages required for driving the synthesizer. It has been found possible to make the system operate in real time so that the acoustic output is generated at normal speaking rates.
