Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We discuss the possibilities of active information acquisition by sign language interpreters using remote control cameras. The results of some trial experiments are as follows, "It is difficult for an interpreter or an interpreting assistant to control the remote cameras for active information acquisition.", "The interpreters can adapt flexibly to the environment even though selected by other camera operators.". Moreover, the facts "The information given to an interpreter is increased compared with the actual interpretation.", "The human interactions among a lecturer and an interpreter and students are decreased." are interesting.
