Research Abstract |
The goal of our study is to make a vocal cord model from digital data and then use it to establish a speech simulation system for maxillofacial prosthetics and for the preliminary survey. In this study, we utilized an MRI images acquired while the subject phonated the sound /a/. The image was produced by the Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International (ATR) Innovative Technologyfor Human Communication and published by the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT). Using this image, we prepared a phonating vocal tract model and confirmed the acoustic features with the acoustic analysis.
