Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Deaf people get various information by watching the face of person one is talking to. The information includes the fact that the speaker is speaking and the facial expression of the speaker. When multiple people have a conversation such as a group discussion, it is difficult for a Deaf person to identify the speaker. In this research, we design a system for Deaf people to recognize the speaker in conversations of multiple people. For the purpose of popularizing the proposed system, we used commercially available products such as microphones and designed the software to run on several types of OS.
