- We are doing a research here at Brigham Young University (BYU) on how to deliver educational ASL content through a variety of Head Mounted Displays (HMDs). We would love to have as many Deaf people get involved with this research. Spread the word! To contact us, please e-mail signglasses@byu.edu. Thank you!
Supported by the National Science Foundation under grant IIS-1124548 and by a generous gift from the Sorenson Impact Foundation. - Фільми й анімація

This is amazing. Just what we (yes, I'm deaf) have been dreaming of all along. Am in full support of your efforts and would definitely like to learn more. So many uses for this invention ... Classrooms with deaf students, plays where interpreters are needed, even in meetings with doctors, attorneys, etc. The list where we can use these is indefinite. Keep up the good work!!
Thank you! We're just beginning to make the ripples in the water right now. All we need is your support and feedback with this technology!
Needs them in our Temple!
Technology of the year!!!!!
I sure hope so! Have you seen the impressive stuff from MotionSavvy? Their technology is incredible.
"We don't have interpreters but we do have mustaches!"
That's AWESOME.
Excellent job, Austin! I think this would be great at some museums in DC area.
It would definitely benefit a lot of the museums in DC area, especially the Smithsonian.
Thank you for your development. This is awesome! we need this in Japan!
We don't even have interpreter at pranetarium.
We're very grateful for BYU and many other sponsors for making this a reality!
this is pretty amazing Austin. Awesome project!
Thanks Ethan!
Very cool stuff!

What about also including closed captions on the glasses for those hearing people that are signing-impaired? ;)
We haven't explored the option yet, but I'm sure it's possible to do that.
Any plans for development to use in movie theaters? I know closed caption glasses are currently available but this would be amazing to allow full language access to major motion pictures.
We don't have any current plans on developing this for movie theaters. But this is an idea we would definitely consider. Thanks!
Your project is excellent. I would like to give you some feedbacks. Can opening caption be included? because some mainstreaming students, hard of hearing and adult losing hearing can understand and learn sign language same time. Secondly, can video be resized to enlarge? good luck
Thank you! There is a way to make it open captioned, or to use text instead of video. But as of now, it's either video or a video with hard coded subtitles on it. There is potential for it, so I'm sure it'll work either way. Since we're using the Google Glass, the video itself is fixed to 640 x 320 pixels. We cannot adjust the size because of the hardware itself. There are numerous of different glasses that offer bigger video sizes, but they're rather bulky when you wear it. Thanks!
Hi Austin! I see that you reply to comments on your video pretty well, so I have a question for you! I took some ASL classes where I currently live, but I will be moving to Provo for school and want to keep learning/practicing. How would one become involved in the deaf community in Provo?
Elizabeth, Provo/Orem is a great place to get involved with the Deaf Community. There is a rather large number of Deaf students attending nearby Utah Valley University (UVU), and there are some attending BYU right now. Go to ASL clubs, and Deaf events, and you'll get involved!
There's an ASL club at BYU that you can go to. It's fun :)
Yes, you should go to the ASL Club at BYU!
Eu quero aorender a linguagem do templo porque sou aunica surda e é dificil

não tem minguém que saiba a linguagem dos surda dento do templo.
eu quero estudar faculdade BYU
Is the interpreter all prerecorded, which the software then brings to the glasses at predetermined times?
As of now, yes. As you see in the video, Dave speaks about working on a live feed with background subtraction. The possibility of having a live feed is already there, but we're getting much better results with pre-recorded ones for now. We're using educational scenarios right now, and as time progresses, we will continue working towards to making it live-feed capable.
oi eu sou surda,
e muito membro SUD
I love this initiative. Better Hearing Australia in West Australia would be interested in an international partnership (Australian University and not for profits input or support). www.betterhearingaustraliawa.org
