April 5th, 2021 – v2.0 released. The expanded functionality of the ListenTALK tour guide system makes it easier for interpretation applications, enhances natural conversations, and delivers better performance.<\/em> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new 2.0 features are summarised below.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Enhanced Ratio Performance<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Increased the working number of simultaneous groups in the same area – now up to 30 groups<\/strong> (Europe version).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Up to Three Talkers at One Time<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Creates and promotes a more natural, free-flowing conversation by allowing a Leader, a Sub-leader and a Participant to all speak with each other at the same time with ‘open microphones’ like a conference call (full-duplex). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What happens when the fourth person has something to say?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ListenTALK monitors the conversation and applies an algorithm to keep the most recent talker in the conversation and allow the next Participant to join the discussion – automatically. So, when a fourth person presses their Talk button, they take-over as the third-talker (replacing the least active talker).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ListenTALK avoids distracting chatter that\u2019s overheard when too many microphones are active and keeps background noise to a minimum \u2013 enhancing clarity to keep everyone focussed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simultaneous Interpretation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ability for an interpreter to hear the main presenter or tourguide (source language) in their headset while interpreting and speaking in a different language to another group of Participants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, a two-deep relay interpretation can be set up if preferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants listening to a simultaneous translation may be given the option to ask questions to their interpreter (two-way sub-group).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Additional interpreters can be added within the 30-group limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
