Abstract

IVoice is an open-source, real-time closed-loop voice monitoring testbed. It can be used to test and assess Cognitively Assistive Robots (CARs) that target voice rehabilitation. Built on a Unity–Python architecture, the testbed supports modules that continuously analyze pitch, loudness, and voice quality, providing adaptive multimodal feedback for voice training. IVoice includes a fully functional prototype that supports voice capture, calibration, a feedback module, and modules for data collection. All these modules interact with each other based on well-defined interfaces. As long as the interface definitions are supported, users of the testbed can modify one or more of the constituent modules.
