Samsung is working to enable its TVs to recognize sign language for commands like “turn on the television.”
What features will be available for people with hearing loss?
Samsung’s TV lineup is about to become a lot more accessible for people with low vision or hearing loss. The company said all of its 2020 QLED and Neo QLED models will come with new features like being able to move captions to avoid blocking other text on a video and the ability zoom in on a sign language window to see it better.
“We don’t want to exclude anyone,” Byungho Kim, of Samsung’s social contribution centre in Suwon, said in a video during Samsung’s event. “Our technology is for everyone.”
