Transcription Table: Text Support During Meetings.

In this paper we present the design of a tool that allows a hearing-impaired person to participate in a meeting. The tool combines speech recognition with a table top augmented reality system. One of the foremost requirements was that the tool should not stigmatize the hearing-impaired user. Therefore the tool supports features that are attractive to all participants in the meeting. The final prototype has the following features: it can convey (some of) the meeting content to the hearing-impaired person, it supports eye contact between participants, it allows an interaction with words and sentences, it provides a meeting history and instant minutes.
