This AI tech can understand words that are not even spoken out loud

POSTECH researchers developed a wearable AI system that reads subtle neck muscle and skin movements and turns silent speech into a human-like synthesized voice.

The device is lightweight, comfortable to wear, and can recalibrate itself when repositioned to keep working reliably.

In some settings, it outperforms bulkier EMG- and EEG-based approaches, making it more practical for real-world use.

The technology could help people who have lost their voice and enable discreet communication in noisy or sensitive environments.
