PROJECT ABSTRACT
Based on the World Health Organization, around 466 million people worldwide have disabling hearing loss. It is estimated that by 2050 over 900 million people will have disabling hearing loss.
We believe in the power of technology to help break down barriers and make life a little easier for everyone.
How can we help those people communicate easily and more effectively with anyone and anyplace?
Volume Indicator
Voice volume is important to express emotion during the conversation. It is definitely harder for Deaf and Hard-fo-Hearing people to understand it. Having a volume indicator helps the community better communicate with anyone at any place.
Think out side the box
Hand sketching for any associate with sound wave, and tried to simplify it.
The shape is too complicated, and long learning curve for user to understand the indicator.
Keep it simple and align with Google voice search
The learing curve is short for users.
Share the same pattern with Google voice search and it will not too distracting user when they are reading the transcribe.
Made the quick motion prototype to discuss with PM, Machine Learning engineer, and interaction designer.
