EXAMPLE
HOW ?
WHY?
Pepper is easier to understand when
you add pauses in Pepper
’
s speech
When Pepper speaks for too long without a pause, users don't
keep up and may not retain the information.
Use pauses throughout your text; it helps the user understand
more: \pau=xxx\ are expressed in milliseconds.
Tip: To know where a pause is needed, read your text out loud
to detect when one seems most natural and when you need to
breath in.
Don't: "My name is Pepper and I'm a humanoid robot. I'm 47
inches tall and I was created at the SoftBank Robotics lab in
Paris."
Do: "My name is Pepper. I'm a humanoid robot and I'm 47 inches
tall. I was born at SoftBank Robotics, in Paris."
