1. A method of measuring a sound source of human speech comprising:

  • directing one or more electromagnetic (EM) waves from an EM sensor toward toward a speech organ, that is a generating source of a speech sound detecting electromagnetic (EM) waves scattered from a sound generating speech organ to measure the conditions of said speech organ while it is generating a speech sound detecting acoustic speech output from the speaker to obtain acoustic speech information combining the EM speech information with the acoustic speech information using a speech characterization algorithm.
