Viseme - How to use it in VB?
-
Does anyone know how to implement Viseme events in Visual Basic 2005? I have the Microsoft SPAI-5.1 DSK for text-to-speech and voice recognition. What I want to do is create an animated face that moves it's mouth as if speaking while it is reading text-to-speech. This is on a Windows XP system, BTW. I've read that the way to do that is through viseme events, but I have not seen a good example of how to do that, especially in VB.net. I've also read reconflicting information that says that viseme events may only be possible under Windows Vista. Has any one used viseme events in VB? Or does anyone know a different way I can make an animated charactor sync mouth movements with spoke text-to-speech words? Thanks For Reading, -Justin R. Ratliff weyoun7ster@gmail.com

You can probably get some ideas from this article[^] and its sample project.
