Problem Statements

Education is what makes people are today. Good

education leads people to good path in the future.

Education should be equally given, even to disabled

people. Because they also have to work as other

normal people do. But the education that they received

is limited.

The lecturers who teach people like them are only a

few. And the good ones, even lesser. They deserve to

learn the best teachings from the best lecturers as the

normal people do.

In the real world, they also meet difficulties when they

have to meet new people that do not understand their

needs and ways of doing communication.

People who are mute and deaf use sign language to

replace verbal communication and they have to do lip

reading to understand what people are talking.

Do sign language able to bridging them

to the normal people?

Do lip reading is effective when they

are communicating with people with

different accents?

SOLUTION

Doca is solution that is specifically dedicated to people

who have the passion to teach or work with these

people with certain needs and also for the people with

these disabilities.

The idea is to create a remote and direct

communication device. The features included are video

call, text messaging, sign language - voice translator,

voice - text translator.

This invention will help these people to broaden their

knowledge, social life, and freedom to have more

things.

Definition StatementS

through communication

> To enhance the possibilities of the mute and the deaf

to have same life as normal people

Usability

ViDeo Call

The user will be able to do video call with the users

that use sign language and translate them directly into

voice.

While on the side of the other users who use sign

language, they will receive answers in text form which

translated from voice.

text meSSaging

Sending a text message will be done as how normal

mobile phone works. The difference is that the

notification sound can be changed to beeping light

indicator and vibration will be in higher intensity.

Sign language - VoiCe tranSlator

This feature works automatically when the one of the

users perform sign language during the phone call.

This feature can be turned off if both users are sign

language performer. It works with front or rear camera.

The user can switch the active camera instantly.

This also works when the users are doing face-to-face

communication. The sign language performer has to

be at either front or rear camera coverage.

VoiCe - text tranSlator

This feature works by default, but the users can turn

off this feature during a video call. The noise will be

filtered and the main voice will be translated to text on

the screen. It also can be used hand-in-hand with the

sign language - voice translator feature.

Affordability

This might not be very expensive and probably can

be subsidized by government or ministry of education

and manpower. This will enhance the education level of

society and productivity rate of a nation.

Sustainability

Doca can be used for long period of time. The interface

might be keep updated in order to meet the purposes

of the users.

Durability

The screen and touchscreen keyboard will be both

made of LED Backlit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The

body is made of alluminium unibody and covered with

nano-coated UV-active to repel dirt. The battery is

Lithium ion which can lasts about 15 hours talk time.

Innovation

There is no mobile phone which include sign language

- voice and voice - text translator. The services

provided recently are only video call which only can be

used by both sign language performers.
