The main functionalities of VocalSe@rch are: keyword search for blind users on the Internet,speak rate management, vocal on-line help, synthesis language selection, environmental personalization. auto software upgrade. pauselresume tool to intenupt and restart the synthesis process, sequential sentence synthesis thus allowing the user to navigate a text so s/he can listen or re-listen to specific words or phrases.
