AMSTERDAM, SEPTEMBER 11,
2018 –
RTW,
a leading vendor of visual audio meters and monitoring devices for professional
broadcast, production, post production and quality control, will present its
new speech intelligibility technology at IBC 2018 (Stand
8.D89). Developed in partnership with the Fraunhofer Institute for Digital
Media Technology IDMT in Oldenburg and funded by the German Federal
Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi), this new measurement
technology, which provides real-time analysis of speech intelligibility in film
and TV dialogues, will be available for exclusive demonstrations at the RTW
stand throughout the show.
Understanding
speech on television can sometimes be difficult, or even impossible. There are
frequently scenes in movies and TV shows that make it hard to understand what
is being said. Perhaps the main character speaks unclearly, or there is traffic
noise in the background of one scene, or loud music to underscore the tension
in the next. RTW’s speech measurement technology aims to eliminate much of this
auditory stress before it even makes it to the ears of the viewer.
RTW will be demonstrating the new
technology using a real-time analysis tool that clearly displays the current
level of speech intelligibility in an audio project.
“I am proud that RTW is once again the market leader in measurement
technology, this time addressing the most important audio obstacle for modern
broadcasters: speech intelligibility,†says Andreas Tweitmann, CEO of RTW. “Demonstrating our latest speech measurement technology at
IBC is an important landmark for RTW, and we look forward to implementing it
into future audio tools.â€
