Voice Biometrics Technology

Posted by: on Mar 27, 2014 | No Comments

Nuance Communications has created a tool called Nuance Forensics. It is a voice biometrics solution that can assist with criminal investigations and the prosecution and defense of suspects. Nuance uses a voice biometrics technology to help confirm or deny someone’s identity based on audio files that are used during investigations. This technology delivers accurate and unique identifying characteristics based on an individual’s voice. Instead of listening to hours of audio recordings, investigators can use Nuance to pinpoint conversations of interest by filtering out audio recordings. This will accelerate the investigations and may be able to be used for the purposes of prosecution or defense of a suspect. Nuance Forensics also has innovative algorithms that can identify dialect, the language spoken, and the gender of a speaker in a recording.
