AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The system provides context-aware error correction within text captions, minimizing disruptions and ensuring that hearing-impaired users can easily understand corrections without interrupting the conversation flow.

Problems solved by technology

Even with revoicing provided by a trained call assistant, the text transcription received by the hearing-impaired user may include errors.
Although, backspacing an error in a text caption and displaying corrected text may provide a hearing-impaired user with a context for the correction, this method is distracting to a hearing-impaired user and interrupts the continuity of a conversation between a hearing-impaired user and a hearing user.
Further, providing a corrected portion at the end of a previously provided text caption not only interrupts the continuity of a conversation but also fails to provide context of the correction to the hearing-impaired user.

Abstract

Systems and methods related to providing error correction in a text caption are disclosed. A method may comprise displaying a text caption including one or more blocks of text on each of a first device and a second device remote from the first device. The method may also include generating another block of text and replacing a block of text of the text caption with the another block of text. Furthermore, the method may include displaying the text caption on the second device having the block of text of the first text caption replaced by the another block of text.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12 / 624,973, filed Nov. 24, 2009, pending, which will issue as U.S. Pat. No. 8,379,801 on Feb. 19, 2013, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated herein by this reference in its entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]Embodiments of the disclosure relate generally to text captioning and more specifically to correction of errors within a text caption.BACKGROUND[0003]Modern telecommunication services provide features to assist those who are deaf or hearing-impaired. One such feature is a telecommunication device for the deaf (TDD). Hearing-capable users communicate with hearing-impaired users who are users of TDD devices through so-called “relays.” A relay is a telecommunication intermediary service, which is intended to permit a deaf or a hearing-impaired person to utilize a normal telephone network. A relay service may include an operator, referred to as a “call assistant,” ...
