Voice Stream Augmentation. What is it?

Voice stream augmentation is a technique that amplifies or modifies a voice stream in real time to improve its quality. In short, it involves using electronic devices such as microphones, loudspeakers, amplifiers, or software algorithms to change the characteristics of the sound, e.g. voice tone.

It is not difficult to guess that augmentation is used in speech recognition systems, games, and even in artificial intelligence, where it allows the generation of artificial voices and improving their naturalness.

Currently, in one of the projects we are creating our own voice stream augmentation engine. Its purpose is to support detection of unauthorized use of voice in the communicator for further synthesis/conversion without causing degradation of the sound heard at the level of the human ear. All this to prevent voice theft and ensure the most effective operation of the service.
