Google's new Project Relate app aims to help people with speech impairments communicate

The app is also designed to help facilitate interactions with theGoogle Assistant.

To start, users record a set of phrases so the app can get to know how they talk.

Then, Google uses speech data to personalize the technology and help users carry out commands.

The Relate app includes three key features.

Repeat restates what someone says in a clear computerized voice, hopefully making face-to-face interactions more seamless.

Then, they’ll be given access to the Listen, Repeat and Assistant features.

Anyone interested in testing the Project Relate app can fill out a form atg.co/ProjectRelate.

The team will respond “in the coming months,” Google says.

Project Relate is part of Google’s ongoing effort to make technology more accessible to people with disabilities.
