Abstract
An interactive speech synthesizer for enabling people who cannot talk but who are familiar with use of picture exchange communication to autonomously communicate using verbal language. A microcontroller, at least one tag reader, and an audio output device are disposed at a housing, while at least one encoded tag is replaceably attached to the housing. The at least one tag reader reads data from an associated encoded tag, which has been replaceably attached thereat, to form a coded signal and transmits the coded signal to the microcontroller that looks up a sound bit file corresponding to the coded signal and sends the sound bit file to the audio output device to convert into sound, thereby allowing a sound corresponding to the selected tag to be produced to thereby generate, automatically and sequentially, unique audible information associated with the data of each encoded tag.
