Acoustic Technology, Inc. (ATI Systems) Revolutionizes Emergency Communication with Unique Advanced Text-to-Speech Integration in ATI MassAlert™ Software
May 21 2024 - 3:33PM
Acoustic Technology, Inc., a leading provider of innovative Mass
Notification system solutions, continues to advance emergency
communication with its integrated advanced text-to-speech (TTS)
capabilities in ATI MassAlert™ software. This groundbreaking
feature enhances emergency communication by offering dynamic and
customizable alerts tailored to evolving situations.
“We are thrilled to continue offering our
cutting-edge text-to-speech feature in the ATI Mass Notification
system,” said Antonio Cracchiolo, senior VP of ATI Systems. This
ongoing enhancement empowers organizations to deliver emergency
updates with clarity and speed, providing crucial details as events
unfold.”
Key features of the TTS integration
include:
1. Customizable Alerts: Users can create and
customize alerts on the fly or utilize predefined templates for
instant use in emergencies.
2. Dynamic Tone Selection: The system offers a
range of tones to precede alert messages. Users can select tones to
match the severity or nature of the alert, enhancing overall
effectiveness.
3. Targeted Alerting: The TTS alerts within ATI
MassAlert™ software offer granular control over who receives
critical information. Users can customize alerts and direct them to
specific audible alerting devices or sirens individually, as a
group, or based on the alert polygon coordinates. This level of
precision enhances overall emergency response capabilities and
ensures that alerts reach the right people or areas at the right
time.
Leveraging Integrated Text-to-Speech for
Comprehensive Alerting
The ATI Mass Notification system stands out for its
advanced text-to-speech (TTS) capabilities and seamless integration
with critical communication platforms, enabling a comprehensive
approach to alerting:
Unified Alert Delivery: Our system integrates with
FEMA IPAWS, NOAA National Weather Service, and third-party critical
communications platforms, unifying alert delivery across multiple
channels. Whether it’s emergency notifications, weather alerts, or
messages from external sources, ATI MassAlert™ converts these
text-based alerts into audio format for broadcast through indoor
and outdoor speakers.
Precise Geolocation Targeting: In cases where
alerts contain alert polygon coordinates, such as those from NOAA
National Weather Service or FEMA IPAWS, ATI MassAlert™ utilizes
this information to target devices or sirens based on the given
alert polygon. This ensures that alerts are delivered precisely to
the specified geographic region, enhancing the effectiveness of
emergency notifications.
Integration with ATI-IPAWS Alert Origination Tool:
ATI MassAlert™ can seamlessly pair with the ATI-IPAWS Alert
Origination Tool, allowing alerts created through this tool to be
pushed to both the IPAWS platform and the MassAlert™ system
simultaneously. This integration enables real-time conversion of
alerts to audio using TTS, which can then be broadcast to audible
alerting devices like sirens. This streamlined process enhances the
efficiency and consistency of emergency notifications across
different platforms.
Diverse Communication Channels: The system’s
flexibility extends to communication channels, delivering TTS
messages over the air using radio frequency, satellite
communication, or IP-based methods such as Ethernet, cellular
networks, or satellite communication.
This interoperability ensures that emergency alerts
can be triggered and disseminated efficiently, leveraging the
capabilities of established systems and platforms for broader and
more impactful communication strategies.
The flexibility and versatility of the ATI Mass
Notification system, coupled with the MassAlert™ TTS feature, mark
a significant advancement in emergency communication technology.
Organizations can now leverage the power of text-to-speech to
ensure rapid response, enhance safety, and save lives during
emergencies.
