Speech science sits at the intersection of acoustics, linguistics, and neuroscience, studying how humans produce, transmit, and perceive spoken language. From the resonant frequencies (formants) that distinguish vowels to the precise timing of voicing onset that separates 'b' from 'p', speech is one of the most complex signals in nature — yet we decode it effortlessly in milliseconds.
These simulations let you analyze vowel formants, measure voice onset time, read spectrograms, track pitch contours, and synthesize speech from articulatory parameters — all with real-time interactive controls grounded in acoustic phonetics research.
