Storytelling Text-to-Speech (TTS) Application

Project Objectives

This project aims to develop an interactive Text-to-Speech (TTS) application that enables users to input stories and have them narrated using diverse voices in multiple languages.

Implemented Pipelines

The application leverages the Edge TTS service for high-quality voice synthesis, offering a range of neural voices across different languages. Key functionalities include:

• Text Input: Users can enter the story they wish to convert into speech.
• Language Selection: A dropdown menu allows users to choose from various languages, including English and Arabic.
• Speaker Selection: Based on the selected language, users can pick from a list of available speakers.
• Audio Generation: Clicking the “Generate Magical Audio” button processes the text and produces an audio file.
• Audio Playback: The generated audio file is displayed, allowing users to listen to the narration.

How to Use the Interface

1. Enter Your Story: Type your text into the provided input field.
2. Select Language: Choose your preferred language from the dropdown menu.
3. Pick a Speaker: Select a speaker corresponding to the chosen language.
4. Generate Audio: Click the "Generate Magical Audio" button to create the narration.
5. Listen to the Output: Once generated, the audio file will be available for playback.

Justification for Model and Pipeline Choices

• Edge TTS Service: Chosen for its advanced neural voice synthesis, Edge TTS delivers natural-sounding speech and supports multiple languages, enhancing the storytelling experience.
• User-Friendly Interface: The application is built using Gradio, ensuring an intuitive and interactive user experience for seamless text-to-speech conversion.
