ENHANCED ACCESSIBILITY IN BUSINESS COMMUNICATION FOR HEARING IMPAIRED INDIVIDUALS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240380835 titled 'ENHANCED ACCESSIBILITY IN BUSINESS COMMUNICATION FOR HEARING IMPAIRED INDIVIDUALS
The abstract describes a system for enabling captioned telephone service (CTS) to a phone system using a landline telephone, an adapter device, a portable electronic device for a hearing-impaired user, and a CTS application installed on the portable electronic device. The landline telephone and the adapter device have various ports and transceivers for communication and connection.
- Landline telephone with RJ-9 port, 3.5mm audio jack, USB port, or Bluetooth transceiver for headset communication.
- Adapter device with RJ-9 port, 3.5mm audio jack, USB port, and Bluetooth transceivers for connecting to the landline telephone and the CTS application.
- Adapter device also includes WiFi and wired network transceivers for additional connectivity options.
- Connection between the adapter device and the CTS application can be established via Bluetooth, WiFi, or wired network.
Potential Applications: - Enhancing communication for hearing-impaired individuals using captioned telephone service. - Improving accessibility and usability of landline telephones for the hearing-impaired.
Problems Solved: - Providing a solution for hearing-impaired individuals to effectively use captioned telephone service. - Addressing the limitations of traditional landline telephones in supporting CTS.
Benefits: - Increased accessibility and communication options for the hearing-impaired. - Seamless integration of CTS with existing phone systems.
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing Communication for the Hearing-Impaired: Commercial Applications of Captioned Telephone Service System" This technology can be utilized in telecommunications companies, healthcare facilities, and senior living communities to improve communication for the hearing-impaired population.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the adapter device facilitate communication between the landline telephone and the CTS application? 2. What are the key advantages of using Bluetooth, WiFi, or wired network connections for the CTS system?
Original Abstract Submitted
a system for enabling captioned telephone service (“cts”) to a phone system includes a landline telephone, an adapter device, a portable electronic device for a hearing impaired user, and a cts application installed on the portable electronic device. the landline telephone has an rj-9 port, a 3.5 mm audio jack, a usb port, or a bluetooth transceiver for supporting two-way communication with a headset where the landline telephone itself does not provide cts. the adapter device includes an rj-9 port, a 3.5 mm audio jack, a usb port, and a first bluetooth transceiver for supporting two-way communication with the landline telephone. the adapter device further includes a second bluetooth transceiver, a wifi transceiver, a wired network transceiver, the adapter device being constructed to connect to the cts application via bluetooth connection, wifi connection, or wired network connection.
