Waveguide Voice Engine

Natural voice from pure physics.

No neural networks. No recordings. No training data. No runtime dependencies. A digital waveguide that produces human-quality speech from mathematics alone. Formants emerge from geometry, not lookup tables.

How It Works

Three-stage physics pipeline

Sound is produced by simulating the physical vocal tract. No statistical models. No neural inference. Pure waveguide physics.

01

Glottal Source

Liljencrants-Fant two-mass fold model generates the raw excitation signal. No samples, no recordings — pure waveform physics from first principles.

02

Vocal Tract Filter

10-section digital waveguide models the human vocal tract. Cross-sectional areas shape formant frequencies. Change the geometry, change the voice.

03

Radiation & Output

Lip radiation model applies the final acoustic transform. Natural-sounding speech computed entirely from first principles. Real-time on embedded hardware.

Deployment Verticals

From prosthetics to defence

The same 2 MB kernel powers every application. No cloud. No network. Runs on embedded hardware in real time.

Voice Prosthetics

Natural speech restoration for laryngectomy patients. Real-time synthesis from a 2 MB kernel running on embedded hardware. No cloud connection required.

Hearing Prosthetics

Cochlear waveguide processing with Hopf amplifier and binaural spatial audio. Physics-based hearing aid kernel in 2 MB with zero latency.

Sensor Prosthetics

Extensible waveguide framework for tactile and spatial sensing prosthetic devices. The same physics kernel adapted for non-auditory sensory input.

Aerospace & Defence

Deterministic voice synthesis and recognition for secure communications. No external dependencies, air-gapped capable, tamper-proof.

The Adjoint Pair

Voice production and auditory perception are mathematical duals. The same kernel powers both — one physics framework, two directions. Production (W) and perception (W†) form an adjoint pair on a 2-simplex. One architecture for all sound.
