Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of barrier-free communication, in particular to a barrier-free communication device. Background Art

[0002] Currently, technologies for communication between the hearing-impaired and the general public are mostly focused on the development of devices such as hearing aids. For hearing-impaired people who need to communicate with others using sign language, there are also technologies that use machine vision to recognize sign language. While these assistive devices can enable some hearing-impaired people to understand the information being conveyed, they still have the following drawbacks:

[0003] Speech-to-text devices are more suitable for people with acquired hearing impairments. When used by people with congenital hearing impairments, it is difficult for them to express what they want to say through their own language system, making it difficult to form a smooth communication loop.

[0004] As for sign language recognition devices, these devices are only used to translate sign language and are used from a third-person perspective. They are of little help to hearing-impaired people and are inconvenient to use (for example, hearing-impaired people themselves cannot use cameras to record third-person sign language).

[0005] Therefore, a barrier-free communication device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] (1) Technical problems solved

[0007] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a barrier-free communication device, which solves the problem that the existing speech-to-text technology cannot adapt to the majority of hearing-impaired people and the problem that the existing sign language recognition equipment is inconvenient for the hearing-impaired people themselves to use.

[0008] (2) Technical solution

[0014] (3) Beneficial effects

[0015] Compared with the existing technology, this device provides a barrier-free communication device with the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This barrier-free communication device overcomes the communication barriers between the hearing-impaired and ordinary people, allowing both parties to communicate with each other in a way they are familiar with. That is, the hearing-impaired, that is, the user of the device, signs, which is recognized by the camera and machine vision system of the device on the chest and then converted into voice through voice synthesis software and played through the speaker. The other party does not need to understand sign language and can understand the meaning through voice. The other party then responds by speaking. The microphone on the device collects the sound and converts it into text through the voice recognition system and displays it on the display screen. The user can understand the other party's meaning through text.
