The hybrid of a tour guide system and audio guide
The GroupyCompany system is a useful addition for everyone who intends to spice up their guided tours with even more adventure. This feature makes it possible to play audio during the tour.
The audio guide lets you conduct your guided tours at the ideal volume – save your voice in noisy environments and ensure optimal communication during your adventure tour. The dual-speaking function also allows two guides to communicate with the group simultaneously.
NEW: GroupyCompany now enables dialogue.
The special feature: Simultaneous multilingualism
As a special feature, the audio guide’s dual function allows you to provide several languages simultaneously during a tour. Accommodate international guests with GroupyCompany. Use the audio guide’s dual function to transfer ready-made content to the device and play it back in any number of languages. Playback occurs with individual numbering and selection (as is common in museums) or for all visitors at the same time via the tour guide’s controller tag.
For example, a tour guide welcomes the participants of the tour and asks them to press a number to select their respective language channel (the languages are freely configurable). At the desired point during the tour, the guide starts prepared content for all visitors and it automatically plays in the respective language.
Offer your international guests a very special highlight during company or cultural tours with this audio guide.
Create your own content - voice examples
The following voice examples are a 100% product by a machine and unedited.
With the text-to-speech-function, you can create content for less popular languages such as Arabic oder Hindi. The integrated text-to-speech-feature converts written text into an MP3 file and thus eliminates the need for complex texts.
• German • Spain • French • Russian • Arabic • Hindi
The audio guide is loaded via the supplied GroupySync Software.
Of course, specially prepared MP3 files can also be imported. Currently, 18 languages and different accents (e.g. British English, American English) are available. You can also choose between male or female voice output.
The GroupyCompany system comes with an intelligently designed case that is a charging station, transport and transmission unit in one. Charging, configuration and data synchronisation are all quick and easy to carry out.
