The Wave Speech Research System
The precise, real-time Wave electromagnetic articulography speech research system is a non-line-of-sight motion capture system specifically designed for tracking speech related articulatory orofacial movements and articulatory kinematics.
Wave Software
The following software is available for use with the Wave Speech Research System.
WaveFront Software
(Included with Wave System)
Standard with 8 and 16 channel systems- Real-time 3D graphical interface
- Stores 3D data relative to reference or default origin
- Absolute or relative measurements captured
- Easily corrects for head movement
- Automatically creates ASCII data files
- Synchronizes and displays audio inputs
WaveView Software
(Optional Add-on)WaveView works with WaveFront software and allows you to perform post-experiment analysis of audio and position data.
Synchronize playback of audio and 6DOF data- Zoom-in on subsections of position and audio plots
- Plot spectrogram and frequency spectrum of audio samples
- Export and plot to various formats
- Calculate absolute and relative velocities
- Configure data filtering
- Identify articulatory landmarks
Real-Time Application Development Software
(Optional)- Provides real-time data flow for application development purposes
- Includes client source code for use in C++
- Allows for application development using real-time data from any of the following Northern Digital products: Wave Speech Research System, Optotrak Certus, and 3D Investigator
