The IRL Subtitles project aims to create wearable technology that enables real-time subtitle display from environmental audio, targeting users who are deaf, hard of hearing, or in need of live translation. The system integrates a microphone array, and a camera to localize sound, transcribe speech, and visually present captions on a laptop screen connected to the glasses. This project would ideally be combined with a smart glass display/platform in the future.
