The industry leader in automated, real-time Spanish closed captioning since 2003.

Since 2003, VoxFrontera has been the leader in providing automated, real-time Spanish captioning to the TV industry. TranslateTV™'s patented Spanish text service is seen on The Tonight Show and local news programs across the USA. VoxFrontera has recently enhanced its world-class translation process by integrating natural-sounding text-to-speech technology. The result is a cost-effective, real-time Spanish language service for the SAP channel for any live or pre-recorded programming. AutoVoice™ expands the audience for English language programming and emergency information to the growing Spanish-speaking population.

Concurrently, VoxFrontera undertook a significant automated captioning research initiative. The current generation of automated speech recognition (ASR) engines, imprisoned in an acoustically weak and statistically intensive processing paradigm, makes it all but impossible to produce continuous speech in real time. VoxFrontera's development of a next-generation ASR employs a unique combination of techniques to produce - in real time - highly accurate, speaker-independent, continuous conversion of speech into text. VoxFrontera's ASR achieves this performance through powerful acoustic analysis coupled with lighter and faster statistical analysis. VoxFrontera has multiple patents pending that incorporate these techniques and for automatically punctuating the text generated by live speech.

VoxFrontera's first generation of the real-time ASR has been used to create a precise, single-word identifier. As the FCC requires TV and radio broadcasters to censor indecent and objectionable language and the current manual staffing solutions are expensive and ineffective, WordStopper™ has been developed as a low-cost, automated alternative to automatically "bleep" target words.
