I see what you’re saying: Saskatoon man invents with voice-to-text mask
A Saskatoon inventor has put technology into masks to help those who have a hard time hearing what someone else is saying behind their face covering.
Brian Kendall has invented a voice-to-text mask.
“It’s got a flexible LED screen inside in a little pouch, and a little computer chip and a lithium battery,” Kendall told 650 CKOM’s Brent Loucks. “It’s like closed-captioning LED.”
Kendall said as the person talks, their words will appear in big LED letters on their mask. It works using a phone app and transmits through Bluetooth.
