Methods and systems for creating a comfortable, user-friendly environment
that allows a hearing impaired user to identify who is speaking and preferably
what is being said during interactions with other individuals, e.g., at any form
of meeting. In accordance with the invention, it is determined whether or not someone
is speaking. If yes, then the speaker's position is identified. It is also determined
whether the speaker is in the range of view for the user's display. If yes, an
illuminated dot is projected above the speaker on a wearable display to show the
user where the speaker is located. If no, a directional arrow is projected on the
display to indicate to the user which way he should look to see the current speaker.
