Challenge Grant: Development of an Alternative Communication Tool Using Lipreading Techniques for Laryngectomy Patients

This study aims to develop a device that uses lip-reading techniques to convert video of the mouth into language, which is then converted into voice using AI synthesis. Many patients still lose their ability to speak due to treatments for laryngeal cancer and other conditions. Conventional substitute voices still have issues with clarity and sustainability. The device we are developing will solve these issues and reproduce the patient's original voice. This research will contribute to improving the quality of life for patients who have lost their ability to speak.
