The WT-1 is a robotic research platform that became the foundation for the development of cell phones. This research on also contributed to other language-based developments. The WT-1 is capable of data compression through transmission of human vocal…
Waseda University's WT-1R is the second version of the WT-1. They have made many improvements to the robot, including its ability to speak consonant sounds. The vocal organs have 15 DOF and produce a more natural speech mechanism than the original had.
Waseda University developed WT-2, a robot which can produce human-like voices. It can be used to train vocally impaired people. WT-2 has vocal organs that have 15 degrees of freedom, which contributes to its exceptional voice quality.
