Minicom text telephones increase economic and social independence for people who are hearing or speech impaired and their families. A minicom enables the user to type their message down the telephone. The Uniphone is a combined telephone with induction coupler, amplified handset and minicom in one unit. Teletec supply the Captel captioned telephone - it includes written word for word captions of everything the caller says.
Instant Captioning is a new communications support technology for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and those they interact with. Word-for-word captions appear (text on laptop screen) during any face-th-face conversation or meeting. This system addresses the chronic shortage of human aid, such as interpreters, lip-speakers, etc.
