Abstract
The article presents the speech synthesis integrated into the eye gaze tracking system. This approach can significantly improve the quality of life of physically disabled people who are unable to communicate. The virtual keyboard (QWERTY) is an interface which allows for entering the text for the speech synthesizer. First, this article describes a methodology of determining the fixation point on a computer screen. Then it presents an algorithm of concatenative speech synthesis used in the engineered solution. Both modules of the system described were created by the Multimedia Systems Department. The work of the entire system was verified in real conditions. Conclusions focusing on the usefulness of this approach are provided.
