Case Study: Waseda Talker No.6

Speech is a very important factor taking into account the environment, the teaching
assistant must be able to express itself in a clear and appropriate manner. The language used must be simplified in order for the children to understand what the teaching assistant is saying. There are a number of robots that offer this functionality, for example, the Waseda Talker No.6 consists of lungs, vocal cords, a tongue, lips and other components to offer speech. The robot can adjust is pitch taking into account the situation, for example, can whisper and shout.

This technology can be incorporated into the teaching assistant to deliver the speech
functionality.
