We Want Your Input!
In the recent two years, university lectures, conferences, company meetings, and more, have shifted to telecommunications, and it is very likely that many of them will remain that way even after the pandemic, now that almost everyone has become comfortable using them and informed of their convenience. However, the deaf and hard of hearing cannot fully or if not at all, understand online conversations without an ASL interpreter. The National Association of the Deaf says that they are unable to understand COVID safety briefing as the interpreter is hard to see on camera and subtitles are a whole different language for the deaf and hard of hearing.
At signR, our goal is to provide an opportunity for the deaf to be included in conversations, announcements, and every event that takes place online, simple, affordable and across a wide range of platforms. signR will provide the deaf and hard of hearing their personal artificial intelligence interpreter when they connect it to an online meeting, a webinar or even a pre-recorded video. When the speaker speaks, the artificial intelligence interpreter will sign for the deaf user, in the corner of the screen, immediately and accurately. With the help of signR, any online event can be inclusive of the deaf and hard of hearing, bringing communities closer together and honouring the membership of the deaf and hard of hearing.
