enCaption is a patented totally automated hardware/ software system that can automatically generate captioning for video. Using enCaption, content creators can provide real-time, live captioning to their hearing impaired audience any time, without any advance notice and without the high costs of live captioners or signers. enCaption uses ENCO’s latest enhanced speaker independent neural network based speech recognition engine to closely inspect and transcribe your audio in near real-time.
Live or Offline Captioning: The latest generation of enCaption also offers an offline file based mode for automatically captioning prerecorded content. Audio or Video files can be ingested into the system and immediately output to a number of difference captioning file formats or sent out for optional human transcription.
No Training Required, Improves Over Time: This is not an ENR/prompter based system nor is it a re-speaking system requiring live personnel to operate. Linking enCaption to your electronic newsroom system allows it to automatically access current and historical script information to build a local dictionary which allows the system to improve accuracy over time. Custom packaging can be configured to recognize a station’s specific set of words. Configure separate packages for different programs, weather, sports, political, religious and more.
NDI Compatible: For the first time, broadcasters, content producers and commercial AV facilities with an NDI® infrastructure can add an automated captioning solution into their workflows. Once connected, enCaption will automatically generate captions through its NDI® input stream and output an NDI® signal with captions keyed directly on top of the video stream.
Proven Solution: enCaption is a proven solution to meet the needs of television broadcasters, government institutions, and other industries. With regulatory captioning requirements a reality and enforcement increasing, ENCO’s enCaption system can economically meet your needs 24 hours a day. Whether you’re closed captioning for video or open captioning for meetings or live events, don’t wait (or pay) for a live captioner. With enCaption, you’re ready now. Available in 28 languages.
