We intend to build a wrapper around the
SoX audio conversion library. This task is complicated by the way SoX deals
with its input and output. |
JDAS |
1.0beta1 (frozen) |
server |
JDK 1.3 |
MITRE |
not supported |
JDAS is a first attempt at a cross-platform
audio server; however, due to the limitations of JavaSound, it works reliably
only on Windows. We've abandoned it in favor of a C implementation based
on PortAudio. |

The audio echo server can be used to test
audio devices. It copies audio from an incoming broker connection to an
outgoing broker connection. |

Somewhat misnamed speech monitor server
from Galaxy Communicator 3.2 distribution. Primary purpose is to notify
an audio server to start listening. Provided for historical purposes. |

CSLR distributes this server as part of
its Communicator-compliant dialogue

part of the OSTK under a full open source license. |

A keypad simulator extracted from JDAS.
Functional, but still under development. We hope to expand this to cover
a wider range of GUI-based audio control. |

We are using the PortAudio audio I/O library
to build a successor to JDAS
which actually works on multiple platforms. We intend to fold in telephony
support developed by third parties. |

A Python GUI push-to-talk server which

A number of years ago, MITRE attempted
to abstract from a number of sources a proposed message set for speech
input and output. As part of this effort, we developed a JSAPI wrapper
which we demonstrated working with IBM ViaVoice. This code (and the accompanying
standardization effort) is dormant, but we're providing it in case someone
finds it useful. |

CSLR distributes a wrapper for a modified
version of Sphinx as part of its Communicator-compliant
dialogue system toolkit, available on an open-source basis for noncommercial
use. CMU distributes a similar wrapper as part of its Communicator-compliant
system under a full open-source license. MITRE is making arrangements
to distribute a wrapper based on either or both of these sources. |
