VisArtico

Visualization of EMA Articulatory data

Functional Description

VisArtico is a user-friendly software which allows visualizing EMA data acquired by an articulograph (AG500, AG501 or NDI Wave). This visualization software has been designed so that it can directly use the data provided by the articulograph to display the articulatory coil trajectories, synchronized with the corresponding acoustic recordings. Moreover, VisArtico not only allows viewing the coil trajectories but also enriches the visual information by indicating clearly and graphically the data for the tongue, lips and jaw. In addition, it is possible to insert images (MRI or X-Ray, for instance) to compare the EMA data with data obtained through other acquisition techniques. It is possible to generate a movie for any articulatory-acoustic sequence. During 2016, we have made a new version of VisArtico where the 3D view is now based on OpenGL. This allows a better quality rendering. It is possible to make measurement between sensors to compute the distance. Finally, we added the possibility to display the fundamental frequency on the spectrogram.
