bruce@heather.pooh.com (Bruce Robertson) (04/24/91)

Gradient Technology, Inc. announces DeskLab(tm), a new SCSI-based
Workstation Peripheral for voice, acoustic and other data acquisition
and playback tasks.  DeskLab delivers flexible, real-time data
acquisition capability to UNIX and VMS Workstations; it installs like
a disk drive and requires no special software drivers.  Workstation
users control DeskLab data acquisition and playback directly from the
UNIX/VMS command line, or from user programs which call DeskLab's C
function library.  In addition, complete applications can be created
directly from shell scripts.  An optional telephone interface 
with full DTMF functions, call progress monitoring and PBX support
tools offers UNIX/VMS voice processing professionals a powerful
applications development and prototyping environment, integrating
telephone and LAN systems.

Signal analysis and playback is supported by a graphics package with
zoom, cut and paste (even between files), control of playback
parameters, and computation of selected statistics.  The package runs
under the X Window system and SunView.

Additional data acquisition features include filesize- or time-limited
sampling, single utterance sampling, and silence removal.  Optional
integral floppy and hard SCSI disks enhance data acquisition
flexibility and provide standalone operation.  An integrated sixteen
bit bidirectional TTL port interfaces with existing instrumentation.

DeskLab comes with a one year parts/ninety day labor warranty and an
extensive operating manual.  Compute DeskLab systems are available
from $5500.  Delivery is 30-45 days ARO.
