 We Would Like To Hear From You about the Traffic News Audio Service Trial




MediaCorp has introduced a Traffic News audio service trial on Digital Radio service since the beginning of 2008. Based on text-to-speech synthesis technology, the fully automated traffic news system converts traffic reports, in textual form, into speech and allows users to listen to updated traffic information on Digital Radio.

We hope you have the opportunity to experience this audio service trial and would like to hear from you. To provide your feedback, please click here.

Following the success of implementing the existing Traffic News audio service trial, another exciting development is MediaCorp’s plan to launch another traffic related data service trial after Jul 2008. Digital Radio members will have the opportunity to become the trial user to experience the upcoming trial. To become Digital Radio member, please click here.
