Audio

Starting with the dVRK 1.6 we added some audio feedback for some console events (operator present, pedal pressed...). The dVRK applications rely on the sawTextToSpeech component for both text-to-speech and beeps. These commands are exposed by the ROS node under the topics:

• /console/string_to_speech: expects a plain string
• /console/beep: expects a std_msgs/Float64MultiArray with 3 values: duration (in seconds), frequency and volume (0 to 1). For example data: [0.5, 3000.0, 1.0]

See the sawTextToSpeech page for requirements.
