The robotization effect consists in transforming a human voice into a robot voice. One implementation is based on the sort-term Fourier transform (STFT), and replaces the sound by a series of symmetrical impulses, which spacing determines the robot fundamental frequency. In its adaptive version, robotization uses some sound descriptors to control the fundamental frequency and the roughness of the robot sound.
