  • Publication number: 20240021211
    Abstract: A method for manipulating voice attributes includes receiving, by a processor, a voice sample of a natural voice of a user, analyzing, by the processor, the voice sample for at least one attribute of the voice sample, receiving, by the processor, entered values for the at least one attribute of the voice sample and applying, by the processor, the entered values to the at least one attribute of the voice sample. The method further includes adjusting, by the processor, the at least one attribute of the voice sample based on the applied entered values to generate a manipulated voice sample, replacing, by the processor, the natural voice of the user with a modified voice of the user based on the manipulated voice sample and outputting, by the processor, the modified voice of the user.

  • Patent number: 11870835
    Abstract: The technology disclosed herein enables user notification of word inconsistencies to indicate session quality. In a particular embodiment, a method includes, during a communication session between a first endpoint operated by a first participant and a second endpoint operated by a second participant, determining a first number of words spoken by the first participant during a period of time based on sound captured by the first endpoint for inclusion on the communication session. The method also includes determining a second number of the words spoken by the first participant during the period of time based on audio received at the second endpoint via the communication session.

  • Patent number: 11652921
    Abstract: Customers can become bored with an interaction with an agent. By providing speech and/or images, of a celebrity disguising the speech, and/or image, of the agent, customers can appear to interact with a particular celebrity. As a result, customers are more likely to stay engaged and have a positive experience. The celebrity, or a particular persona of a celebrity, may be selected from customer preferences and/or a purpose of the call. For example, a movie star's role may have a persona, such as a “heavy,” suitable for collection calls (audio or audio-video), whereas a scientific or technical innovator may be selected for technical support calls.

  • Patent number: 11570223
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and software to provide intelligent detection and automatic correction of erroneous audio settings in a video conference. Electronic conferences can often be the source of frustration and wasted resources as participants may be forced to contend with extraneous sounds, such as background/ambient noises, or conversations not intended for the conference, provided by an endpoint that should be muted. Similarly, participants may speak with the intention of providing their speech to the conference while their associated endpoint is muted. As a result, the conference may be awkward and lack a productive flow while endpoints are erroneously muted or non-muted. By intelligently processing at least the video portion of a video conference, endpoints/participants may be prompted to mute/unmute or automatically muted/unmuted.
