Abstract :
Describes a speech-feedback system called the dynamic orometer, that permits the profoundly deaf to master proper speech reproduction patterns and talk in a relaxed way, that is being developed at the University of Alabama in the USA. The device allows the deaf person to view tongue, jaw, and other vocal-tract movements on a CRT display.
