Audio professionals often struggle to understand dialogue in film and television due to background noise, unclear speech, or other audio obstacles. To address this issue, RTW has partnered with Fraunhofer IDMT to develop a state-of-the-art speech intelligibility technology.

Measuring Speech Intelligibility

The new measurement tool provides real-time analysis of speech intelligibility in film and TV dialogues, helping producers and engineers optimize audio quality. This technology will be available for exclusive demonstrations at the RTW stand throughout IBC 2018.

Aiming to Eliminate Auditory Stress

RTW's CEO, Andreas Tweitmann, emphasized the importance of this technology in eliminating auditory stress for viewers. 'I am proud that RTW is once again the market leader in measurement technology, this time addressing the most important audio obstacle for modern broadcasters: speech intelligibility.'

The collaboration between RTW and Fraunhofer IDMT aims to provide a solution for the industry's challenges in ensuring clear and intelligible dialogue.
