Abstract
A communication device for deaf, hearing impaired, or mute persons comprises a processor control system which makes use of a microphone and a speech recognizer to receive and process audio data (speech or non-speech) to determine whether or not a dangerous situation exits within the environment surrounding the user. The system comprises a key pad and/or stylus and tablet information input system to accommodate communication from the user to the persons in the surrounding environments and a visual display capability to transmit the information so acquired by way of a projection apparatus in the form of characters and in the language to which the user is accustomed. Indicator signals which correspond to dangerous or cautionary situations relating to abnormally loud noises, or readily recognized sound patterns, such as a siren may also be displayed to the user, as may be information related geographic location, distance to a preset destination, or other personally useful information.
