hey..
thanks for showing me the nextalk site, I've
bookmarked it.
the programs and software we create are designed
to get rid of the "third party" and created a real-time
communications portal between a deaf person and
a hearing person.
example, i use my phone program that's coming out
soon. I am deaf. I enter my friends phone number in
to the program and the hearing persons home phone
rings. Once he picks it up, we are directly connected
person to person, NO THIRD PARTY.
Speech recognition and sound processing technology
allow us to recognize what hearing is saying with almost
100% accuracy.
That is translated to text on deaf persons computer,
in turn, I type something into program, i type GA, it
speaks out loud in computer voice to deaf through
phone line.
person to person communication, no third party.
that is the phone software, but the software you
are downloading now, your hearing friend
comes over to visit, he doesn't know any sign language,
you get my software, a good headset microphone, wireless
or not, and put it on your hearing friend, everything he says
is scrolled out on computer for you to read, you type on computer
keyboard, and when you type GA it starts to speak out loud
in English to your friend headset speakers.
real time, one to one communication between deaf and hearing,
with no third party, that's what's i'm doing here.
i suggest you download the program and let me know how it
goes and how well it worked for you to talk to your hearing
friend with headset microphone. when done, let me know your
thoughts and feelings.
