Wearers could use EchoSpeech glasses as an input for a voice synthesizer if they have disabilities, or to issue commands to a paired smartphone or laptop.
The eyeglasses, called EchoSpeech, use acoustic-sensing and artificial intelligence to continuously recognize up to 31 unvocalized commands, based on lip and mouth movements.

Researchers have developed a wearable interface called EchoSpeech, which recognizes silent speech by tracking lip and mouth movements through acoustic-sensing and AI. The device requires minimal user training and recognizes up to 31 unvocalized commands. The system could be used to give voice to those who are unable to vocalize sound or communicate silently with others.
A new study is exploring how mobile devices could be controlled solely by the movement of users’ eyes.
