# Jets Text-to-Speech Model validated for Unity Sentis
This is a text to speech model called [Jets](https://huggingface.co/imdanboy/jets). It takes in a text string which you convert to phonemes using a dictionary and then outputs a wav to play the voice.

## How to Use
* Create a new scene in Unity 2023
* Install `com.unity.sentis` version `1.3.0-pre.3` package
* Put the c# script on the Main Camera
* Put the `sentis` file and the `phoneme_dict.txt` file in the `Assets/StreamingAssets` folder
* Add an AudioSource component on the Main Camera
* Set the `inputText` string for what you want it to say
* Press play

## Information
This version uses a phoneme dictionary to convert the text into a string of phonemes. There are other ways to do this, for example using another model, or heuristics.

Since we are using a simple dictionary it has no way of distinguishing heteronyms (two words with the same spelling but different pronounciation).
