A text-to-speech engine and speech synthesizer developed in 1984 by Digital Equipment Corporation. The first unit to use DECtalk technology was the DTC-01, which had both a serial port, and phone jacks, allowing for telephony capabilities. In the final days of DEC, the DECtalk IP was sold to Force Computers, Inc. in 2000, and then sold to Fonix Corporation (now SpeechFX, Inc.) in late 2001. DECtalk was made famous by its inclusion in the 2010 space simulation game, Moonbase Alpha
