New Cutting-edge Live Captioning Feature, Offers Seamless Accessibility Tyngsboro, Mass. - April 10, 2024 - In today's digital landscape, live captioning has evolved beyond its traditional role, becoming essential for a diverse audience, including those with hearing impairments, non-native English speakers, and individuals in noisy environments. Captions have become indispensable for enhancing comprehension and engagement across various settings, ensuring inclusivity in live content.
Recognizing this increasing need, Broadcast Pix proudly announces the integration of VoCaption live captioning into its line of Hybrid solutions. VoCaption, an innovative automated live captioning solution, enables users to initiate and pause live captions seamlessly from their Broadcast Pix Hybrid system's user interface. Leveraging advanced ASR (automatic speech recognition) technology, VoCaption converts live speech to text with unparalleled accuracy, revolutionizing live events, meetings, and webinars.
Broadcast Pix's Hybrid systems now feature this groundbreaking capability, empowering users to generate live, accurate captions effortlessly with just one click. This integration signifies a significant advancement in live production technology, allowing users to utilize ASR software directly within their system without relying on third-party platforms. VoCaption's impressive accuracy rate ranging from the mid to high 90s significantly enhances accessibility and engagement, benefiting Broadcast Pix users and their audiences.
Key Highlights of VoCaption Integration:
Ease of Use: Broadcast Pix Hybrid systems now seamlessly integrate VoCaption, enabling users to generate live, accurate captions automatically with ease. This feature eliminates the need for third-party platforms, allowing users to utilize ASR software directly within their system. VoCaption seamlessly converts live audio into real-time captions, enhancing accessibility. Integrated into Broadcast Pix FX Hybrid, MX Hybrid, GX Hybrid, and Roadie Systems, VoCaption offers enhanced flexibility and versatility, allowing users to start or stop live captioning effortlessly from Broadcast Pix's configurable user interfaces.
Enhanced Accuracy: VoCaption achieves an impressive accuracy rate of over 90-95%, surpassing the typical 80% accuracy of online streaming platforms. Users can further enhance accuracy with features like the custom dictionary, ensuring precise and reliable captions even in challenging audio environments.
Video Content Optimization: VoCaption includes Automatic EBU Timed Text File Creation, enabling the automatic generation of EBU Timed Text (EBU-TT) files for various functions such as subtitle production, archiving, and live subtitling. Additionally, adding captions to videos enhances their SEO ranking, improving accessibility and audience reach.
We are thrilled to introduce ASR-driven VoCaption integration to our line of Hybrid Integrated Production systems, said David Bowes, CEO at Broadcast Pix. This unique feature represents a significant leap forward in live production technology, offering our users unmatched accuracy and convenience in generating live captions.
