The DRM Consortium has released a schedule of events and broadcasts for the upcoming World Radio Day, Feb. 13.
According to the announcement, “DRM specialists will demonstrate how DRM digital broadcasts can deliver e-learning content — audio, text and images — live or for later use, in one or more languages. A single transmission can reach many learners at once, while low-power DRM receivers convert the signal into a local Wi-Fi hotspot, allowing inexpensive tablets, laptops or phones to access lessons without relying on internet connectivity. Content can be received live and stored locally for on-demand use, ensuring learning continuity even where connectivity is intermittent or unavailable.”
It added, “The consortium will show how AI technologies can support the creation, translation and tailoring of this e-learning content, including high-quality text-to-speech audio.”
Digital Radio Mondiale demonstration broadcasts will also be aired for Europe, southeast Asia, parts of Australia and New Zealand, the Indian subcontinent, east Africa, South Africa along with Brazil and parts of Latin America.
