Abstract(in English) It is difficult for the hearing impaired to take communication support service at a conference, because of lack of high- level operators, which are sign language interpreters and real-time captioning operators. Video interpreting makes use of videoconferencing technology to allow remote communication support service to occur without operators on site. Our approach uses dual-video transmission which gives operators full view of the remote place. For example, the operators can see the face of a speaker giving a presentation and the face of the audience with hearing impairments at the same time. In order that operators might enable to understand the contents of presentation, keywords of presentation also are shown to operators. In this paper, we describe our experimental system for the remote communication support service at the Forum on Information Technology 2004 (FIT2004).
