A. On
the left hand side of the screen is a very active light when you
speak. This is the voice onset indication light and is instantaneously
measuring the rate of change in vocal amplitude in real time.
In the center of
the screen is basically a histogram (visible averages) of the onsets
of your syllables as you speak. The first column to the left is the
most gentle onset that you can make on this measurement system. The
second column illustrates a slightly harder onset of a spoken
syllable, and so forth across the screen. The 5 columns to the left
are green and indicate acceptable onsets. The 5 columns to the right
are red to indicate inappropriate or unacceptable syllable onsets. Remember,
red bars represent those that were made with excessive muscle effort.
On the right hand
side of the screen is the onset average value indicator, a numerical
average of how well you are doing as you utilize the practice system.
As you practice,
the center columns will grow. Once a column reaches the top, a new
screen will start. There is a maximum of 10 screens per practice
session. As you practice, the results will tally in these tables to
let you know the grand total for your practice session. You can flip
between screens by clicking the buttons at the bottom of the screen.
You can use FluencyNet™
while you are on the phone or while having a simple conversation. The
program will measure and store your results.
FluencyNet™
is a new-generation program that helps stutterers remain within a
safe zone of targeted speech instilled in you when you attended HCRI.
