has developed innovative technology enabling hands-free device control and communications in noisy environments. This patented technology uses an in-ear microphone that captures sounds that travel back into the ear canal. We then use proprietary speech algorithms, including a speech recognition engine, to process this signal and recognized commands are sent to the unmanned system. Along with hands-free, heads-up device control capabilities, TAM has also created acoustic echo cancellation, ambient noise reduction, and signal processing algorithms to enable its technology to be used in a communications headset. Think-A-Move has also performed pioneering research to be able to use tongue movement for device control
