Abstract: Evaluation of voice-controlled and conventional teleprompters [DE]
Jeremy Wayne Benjamin, Evaluation of voice-controlled and conventional teleprompters, Hochschule Düsseldorf, Bachelor thesis, 28.05.2024.
This bachelor thesis provides a comprehensive examination of the application and
effectiveness of voice-controlled teleprompters compared to conventional
teleprompters. It begins with a thorough presentation of the theoretical
foundations of these technologies, including a detailed analysis of how
teleprompters work and the mechanisms of voice control and speech recognition, and
a central aspect of the thesis is a comparison of the two systems, paying
particular attention to their scalability, integrability and the advantages and
disadvantages of different control options. This comparison offers a deep insight
into the strengths and weaknesses of both systems and provides valuable insights
for future developments and improvements. The paper describes in detail the test
setup, including the definition of the test objectives, the selection of test
subjects, the integration of the technology and the data collection tools used.
The execution of the experiment is described in detail, including the procedure,
the selection of the software and the overcoming of technical challenges. In
addition, strategies for optimizing the process to improve the efficiency and
accuracy of the results are discussed. Data analysis is carried out through a
combination of observations, surveys and comparisons. Various aspects such as the
previous experience of the test persons, the readability of the texts, the speed
of the text feed and the acceptance of the systems are analyzed. In addition,
video recordings are analyzed to identify grammatical, semantic and pronunciation
errors as well as technical problems. The paper concludes with a discussion and
interpretation of the results. The research questions regarding the advantages
and disadvantages of voice-controlled teleprompters, their requirements, fields
of application and effects on the quality of presentations and speeches are
answered. The work thus contributes significantly to the understanding of
voice-controlled teleprompters and offers valuable insights into their potential
applications and challenges. It thus makes an important contribution to current
research in this area and provides a solid foundation for future studies and
developments.
