Description
Piper is a rapidly operating, localized neural text-to-speech (TTS) system that is particularly optimized for devices like the Raspberry Pi 4, aiming to provide top-notch speech synthesis capabilities without the dependence on cloud infrastructure. It employs neural network models developed with VITS and subsequently exported to ONNX Runtime, which facilitates both efficient and natural-sounding speech production. Supporting a diverse array of languages, Piper includes English (both US and UK dialects), Spanish (from Spain and Mexico), French, German, and many others, with downloadable voice options available. Users have the flexibility to operate Piper through command-line interfaces or integrate it seamlessly into Python applications via the piper-tts package. The system boasts features such as real-time audio streaming, JSON input for batch processing, and compatibility with multi-speaker models, enhancing its versatility. Additionally, Piper makes use of espeak-ng for phoneme generation, transforming text into phonemes before generating speech. It has found applications in various projects, including Home Assistant, Rhasspy 3, and NVDA, among others, illustrating its adaptability across different platforms and use cases. With its emphasis on local processing, Piper appeals to users looking for privacy and efficiency in their speech synthesis solutions.
