OFFIS - contribution to city of science 2009

The HaH project will research and develop next generation assistive devices that
allow the growing number of hearing-impaired which predominantly includes the
elderly equal participation in communication and empowers them to play a full role
in the information society.
HaH will focus on the needs of the hearing-impaired in home environments. Formerly
separated devices like personal computer, hi-fi system, TV, digital camera, tele-
phone, fax, intercom and services like internet access, VoIP, Personal Information
Management (PIM), pay TV and home automation grow together to be accessible via
a TV set connected to a PC or set top box (STB) (functionality can be provided by a
residential gateway (RG)) that implements interfaces to network gateways as well as
to home automation services.
