- The Hidden Earth Timetable Display (5-7)
(PDF 439KB)
- The UK’s annual caving conference – Hidden Earth – has experimented with a network of computers that provide timetable displays, as well as news and information. The latest iteration uses a Raspberry Pi computer at the heart of each ‘information point’, which operates a web browser, pulling information from a local web server. The software and hardware are being developed by David Gibson, a member of the Hidden Earth organising team, who here outlines the salient points.

- Automated Speech Intelligibility Testing with the ABC-MRT (22-24)
(PDF 319KB)
- Quantitatively assessing speech intelligibility commonly requires a panel of listeners to score speech samples. This is a time consuming and tedious activity and there are potential difficulties in recruiting volunteers. Rob Gill has been examining the Articulation Band Correlation Modified Rhyme Test, which offers an alternative.
