Brainglass intends to develop language learning content for web- and mobile applications based on its online learning platform.

Content development will range between the following levels of complexity, requiring different skill sets and levels of competence.

Synchronization between e-books and audio books

The most basic task consists of synchronizing text and audio files, using a timestamp-software developed by Brainglass. A text and audio file is parsed by the software, and the task is to divide the audio into appropriate sections, then split text in appropriate chunks, then set timestamps at the start of each chunk as the sound file is played. Resolution is 10th of second. The software then automatically splits the sound file according to the sections set and creates an xml-file containing the synchronization information. If discrepancies between text and sound are discovered during the process, the text file can be modified slightly to fit the sound.

Input: txt-file, audio file, Timestamp software

Deliverables: xml-file, audio files split according to sections, (edited) text file
