The tone of voice analysis could be a game changer for people with Asperger&#x27;s. If it works well, it could provide valuable feedback. For neurotypicals I&#x27;m not so sure of its utility. Seems like it could cause anxiety.<p>An interesting feature would be the ability to replay what the microphone picked up. This would give more context to the analysis. Though again, this could cause a lot of anxiety as people replay situations and worry about how they sounded.
