Advanced Speech Encoding (ASE)
Program Manager: Dr. Mari Maeda
Mission:
Speech is the most natural form of human-to-human communications. However, the military is often forced to operate in environments where speech is difficult. For example, the quality and intelligibility of the acoustic signal can be severely degraded by harsh acoustic noise backgrounds that are common in military environments. In addition, many situations also require war fighters to operate in silence and in a stealth mode so that their presence and intent are not compromised. The Advanced Speech Encoding (ASE) Program will develop technology that will enable communication in these challenging military environments.
