About Esync AR Нүдний Шил

E-sync нь сонсголын бэрхшээлтэй хүмүүст зориулсан өмсөх төрлийн харилцааны туслах төхөөрөмж бөгөөд хиймэл оюун ухааныг ашиглан ярианы агуулга болон сэтгэл хөдлөлийг шинжилдэг. Энэ нь ярианы агуулга болон сэтгэл хөдлөлийг текст болон мэдрэгчтэй чичиргээ болгон хувиргаснаар хэрэглэгчид ярьж буй хүний өнгө аясыг ойлгох боломжтой болдог. Хэрэглэгчид дохионы хэлээр хариу өгөх боломжтой бөгөөд үүнийг хиймэл оюун ухаан дамжуулан ярианы мессеж болгон хувиргадаг. Төхөөрөмжийн эвхэгддэг загвар нь тохиромжтой бөгөөд хамгаалалттай, гоёмсог өнгөний уялдаа нь өдөр тутмын хувцастай зохицдог. Хавсаргасан апп нь хэлний боловсруулалтыг бодит цагт тохируулах боломжийг олгосноор нийгмийн харилцаанд хэрэглэгчдийн харилцааны туршлагыг сайжруулдаг.

Production Technology
The introduction of AI technology into E-sync enhances face-to-face communication for the hearing-impaired. It recognizes speech content and emotional cues, converting them into text and tactile feedback. Users can respond using sign language, which the device converts into suitable speech based on gesture recognition. This closed-loop communication process, aided by AI hardware, reduces misunderstandings, and improves social interactions.
Design Challenge
We extensively considered the shape and size of the product during the design process, exploring options like smartphones and smartwatches, but ultimately choosing glasses as the most convenient option. We also considered privacy concerns during communication between individuals with hearing loss and hearing individuals, addressing these issues in our design of aesthetics and functionalities.
Research
60.5M+ individuals with severe to total hearing loss struggle with conventional aids, limiting access to info & effective communication. Current assistive devices mainly convert speech-to-text, ignoring the depth of understanding and emotional conveyance crucial in social interactions. This barrier exacerbates isolation, discrimination, and mental health concerns in a hearing-centric society.
Inspiration
People with disabling hearing loss face limitations in accessing auditory cues, resulting in lower emotional cognition compared to hearing individuals. This lack of emotional understanding can lead to misunderstandings in social interactions and difficulties in conveying true emotions and attitudes. Consequently, it may cause offense or awkwardness, leading to misunderstandings and inconvenience.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2024 in Beijing and finished in March 2024 in Beijing.
Operation Flow
E-sync utilizes AI to analyze the speech information of the hearing population, generating visual information, which is then presented to the user through augmented reality technology on the lenses of the glasses. Additionally, the product scans sign language gestures through cameras and translates them into corresponding phrases. Based on the user's social occasions and physiological signals related to personal emotions, AI processes and outputs complete sentences through the speaker.
