This research presents the development of a wearable assistive device aimed at enhancing the daily lives of individuals with hearing impairments. The device seamlessly integrates into regular eyeglasses and leverages cutting-edge technology to transform audio input into text displayed on an OLED screen, thus enabling communication for deaf individuals who cannot hear voices. The system’s core components include an ESP32 WROOM-32 microcontroller, a microphone sensor for audio input, and an OLED display. The software processes audio data through sophisticated algorithms, converting it into readable text. This innovation seeks to bridge the communication gap for the hearing-impaired, promoting inclusivity and autonomy in their interactions. In this paper, we outline the system’s design, implementation, and functionality. Experimental data and results demonstrate the device’s effectiveness, and we discuss its implications, limitations, and areas for future research.
