AI, AR Eye Glasses for Speech to Text help for the Deaf.

This is very new technology. Please share if you have experience with it.

I haven’y tried these, but it appears there are a few options on the market—

I had the opportunity to try a couple pair of captioning glasses recently. I didn't really like them but that's just a personal preference. I preferred reading on a captioning tablet. I did however notice some characteristics that a person needs to consider.

The better of the 2 pair I tried were more expensive. They were bigger and sort of clunky. They did work pretty well and the microphones seemed to be very directional (they focused on exactly where you facing). So if you looked away momentarily they would stop working. Battery life wasn't great so they wouldn't be an all day solution. They were a little out of focus for my eyes but still readable. They were fairly fast and accurate.

The less expensive ones weren't great. I wouldn't buy them. So my conclusion was "Try before you buy". There are many factors to consider.

@arrowshooter Thank you for your comments. They are very helpful and the list of factors to consider I will copy as I start experimenting. I am hoping that some of the vendors you mentioned will be at the HLAA Convention Exhibit Hall for us to try. They are all definitely early stage, but the vendors need people like us to try them at this stage so that we can give them good feedback to make adjustments that the HOH will want to use them.

I'm sure we'll see them in the HLAA Convention Exhibit Hall in Indianapolis. I take this moment to encourage anyone who is living with hearing loss to consider attending that convention. Information is at: http://www.hearingloss.org I realize this isn't possible for many people. So, I also suggest looking on that website to see if there is an HLAA Chapter in your area. Attending their meetings can be life changing.

I have been using AirCaps glasses for the past month.
They work very well in certain environments and are lightweight enough to be worn for daily work.

The technology has improved greatly in the past 6 months. I purchased AirCaps latest glasses and they are life changing. They are available on their site. They are light - weighing about the same as a regular pair of glasses. They communicate via a phone app which connects to their transcription servers via the internet. They have some limited transcription capabilities when you don't have an internet connection but the quality of the transcription is vastly superior with one. Their internet service costs $20 per month after a free trial (they gave me 3 months but not sure they are still doing it for that long) They will also do one way translation of your choice of language but you must be on the internet for that to work. (For example, you can set it to convert say, Spanish, to English, but can't at the same time show English translation to Spanish) When translating, it will still continue to transcribe your main language correctly. They use an ingenious design to permit mounting prescription lenses on the inside of the frames. They are held in place magnetically and maintain their position well, yet are easy to remove for cleaning.

Like any new product there are a few bugs. At times, the glasses will lose its Bluetooth pairing with your phone. I've found this to happen if you have a lot of other Bluetooth devices connected, especially a PC. Much of the problem cleared up when I removed my PC connection. The app has detailed instructions to re-pair the glasses to the phone so once you've done it, it is pretty easy. There is also an annoying screen that pops up over your text when it thinks your internect connection is weak or missing, and again when it is restored. The company has said they plan to remove those notices. The product is actually manufactured in China so changes to the firmware will likely take time.

If you buy these, I strongly recommend you also buy the power caps accessory. The glasses will function for about 2 hours before needing to be recharged. A power cap attaches magnetically to one of the arms to recharge while you are wearing them. This permits full day usage of the glasses.

One drawback is that there is only one frame available for the glasses and it is not adjustable. My face is narrow so the glasses slipped every time I bent my head down. I fixed this with a modified elastic sports strap. Now they stay snug no matter what I am doing.

The glasses don't have the same field of view that my normal glasses have, so peripheral vision is not great with these. But when you need to be able to listen and converse, I've found that these beat any other assistive listening device hands down since I have profound hearing loss. I've taken them to coffee shops and restaurants and could even listen in on conversations at adjoining tables - I haven't been able to do that in more than 30 years. Highly recommended.
