The FBI requires the Kay-Elemetrics DSP 5500-1, a digital spectrograph, capable of producing a high resolution hard copy spectrogram. The digital equipment must produce a hard copy spectrogram with a degree of gray scale comparable to an analog output spectrogram. The DSP 5500-1 achieves this by incorporating a high resolution line printer and the Kay-Elemetric's proprietary algorithm. The spectrogram or voice print is used to compare the recorded voice of an unknown individual with the known voice samples of suspects. This method requires that an examiner make visual observations of hard copy spectrograms generated from the recorded voices for comparison. Kay-Elemetrics Corporation of Lincoln Park, New Jersey is the only manufactuer of a digital spectrograph capable of a high resolution hard copy spectrogram.
