I'm working on a college project where my team have to transform a normal pc case into a talking machine in a human shape. We will put all the mobo and stuffs inside a mannequin and slap a LCD on top of it as the head.
Therefore, I'm searching for a software that user can input text by either typing or reading a txt and renders a 3d facial animation on the fly that reads the speech with lip sync feature. It needs to be able to read at least 500 words and have the ability to display the 3d face in full screen.
So far I've found proFACE (www.famous3d.com) that meet my requirements, but its price tag is w00ping $6000!!
I've also found Baldi or CSLU Toolkit as an alterntive but it's still in development and they removed the 3d facial animation feature away from public (not included in the lastest Tookit)
If any of you are familiar of this kind of software please help me :)

SORRY DIDN'T READ YOUR POST PROPERLY IGNORE STUFF BELOW.
I did have a quick play with this feature using Visual Basic some time ago. Took me half an hour to add a Speech control to a form, put on a photo of someone, and enable lip sync. Not quite what you want but maybe possible to interface with a 3D API.
But it was funny making this guys face talk rubbish.
Good luck.
