摘要:
A speech synthesis device is adapted to provide an audible indication of numerical information through the utilization of a predetermined number of phonemes. Those phonemes are stored within a read only memory on a single large scale integrated circuit chip. A desired length of pause or silence is provided depending upon the kind and location of information to be audibly outputted. The necessity for the pause period is stored in digitally encoded signals within the read only memory in the same manner as with the phonemes.

Speech synthesis is improved by using normalized values of pitch and amplitude data to modify phoneme signals which are further processed by a quantizing noise filter which computes and interleaves the average value between adjacent samples.

A waveform synthesizer arrangement for use in an audible output device is adapted to synthesize desired waveforms and includes a digital filter to reduce the generation of output noise. A time sequential process is effected on data to be reproduced which considers the total nature of waveforms of interest thus performing proper waveform adjustment to avoid acute changes in the waveforms. The time sequential process is affected by previous data and has the effect on the frequency construction of the resulting waveform.

Provided is a technique of correcting influences of optical environment to correctly recognize the color of an input object used for inputting of coordinates, and enabling automatic designation of a color to be used for drawing. A coordinate detection unit detects coordinates of an input object. Next, display light on the display plane in the vicinity of the coordinates is estimated from display data, and a correction value to remove influences of the display light is calculated. A captured image of an input object used for input operations on the display plane is extracted, and the color of the captured image is corrected with a display light correction value. Thereby, influences of the display light added to the input object are removed, enabling the original color of the input object to be identified.

The main object of the invention is to provide an electromagnetic wave resonator making use of surface waves: an electromagnetic wave resonator structure capable of being achieved with existing technologies yet without much difficulty and applying voltage to a positive dielectric area, thereby overcoming a variety of problems arising from the fact that only thermal excitation is available.The contact structure of negative dielectric/positive dielectric/negative dielectric necessary for this type of electromagnetic wave resonator is provided on the surface of the negative dielectric material 1 just as the coaxial structure of the positive dielectric thin film 3 extending in the Y-axis direction and the negative dielectric material 2 received therein is cut in the axial direction. This makes sure both negative dielectric materials 1 and 2 with the positive dielectric thin film 3 sandwiched between them are electrically insulated so that voltage can be applied to the positive dielectric thin film 3, and ensures that an area provided in the negative dielectric material 1 to receive the positive dielectric thin film 3 has an aspect ratio D/P1 of about 1.9, a figure well achievable in the state of the art.
