We mentioned earlier in the week that Robert Ebert, acclaimed film critic and cancer survivor, will be appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show. As he has had so many surgeries connected with his cancer, Roger is now unable to speak and uses the aid of sign language and aunique text-to-speech program to communicate.
We've just learned the Roger will be using the program during his interview with Oprah, which will air next Tuesday. We've also discovered how exceptionally advanced the program he uses actually is. Apparently, the company was able to take audio recordings done by Roger in his earlier years and compose a specific speech track that mimics his own voice. Not only that, but the program also projects inflection and character into the words he types, so as to not just sound like a monotone track.
It sounds very impressive and we can't wait to hear it! It should be a fascinating interview!
