System For Giving Intelligibility Feedback To A Speaker
First Claim
1. A system for giving intelligibility feedback to a speaker, speaking for an audience, comprising:
- a first microphone at the speaker'"'"'s sidea second microphone at the audience'"'"'s side, said first microphone and said second microphone being connected to a processing module arranged to compute a real-time or nearly real-time speech transmission index value based on a signal from said first microphone and a signal from said second microphone; and
a signaling module connected to said processing module and arranged to convey an intelligibility feedback signal to the speaker when said speech transmission index value lies within a certain range or to generate an intelligibility feedback signal when said speech transmission index value lies outside a certain range.

Abstract
System for giving intelligibility feedback to a speaker (1), speaking for an audience (2), comprising a first microphone (3) at the speaker'"'"'s side and a second microphone (4) at the audience'"'"'s side. Both microphones are connected to processing means (5) which are arranged to compute an intelligibility value based on both microphones'"'"' signals. Signalling means (6), preferably at the side of the audience, are arranged to generate an intelligibility feedback signal depending on the calculated intelligibility value. The signalling means being arranged to generate said intelligibility feedback signal in an optical form, visible for the speaker concerned. Wireless connection means (19) may interconnect the microphones, the processing means and the signalling means.
