I'm not deaf, but I'm doing a project for business class that involves the deaf community. Sadly, I have no deaf friends to talk to about this. Our project is focused on video interpretation software. For example, if you were admitted into a hospital they are required to provide an interpreter, and rather than have a live interpreter they can link you via web cam or conference call to a live interpreter.
Most of the questions I have are:
-what difficulties do you have in every day life as a result of being deaf?
-is there anywhere you dread going because of the lack of communication abilities? like government agencies, hospitals, etc? do you have experience with video interpreting?
-are their activities you cant do?
-do you have any deaf friendly solutions that you've thought "why has no one invented this yet?"
Thanks so much!
