Abstract
Japan Student Services Organization (JASO) reported that there are approximately 6,000 physically handicapped students out of 3 million in Japanese colleges and universities. It also reported that there are approximately 1,500 hearing impaired students. They need some special communication supports to take normal classes in university with normal listener classmates. We propose a system to support hearing impaired students in universities. The system is developed as web based system written in Ruby on Rails. Students can watch supporting materials through personal computer displays on their desks in real time in class. Slides used by the teacher can be watched on the display. At the same time, caption of the lecture can be watched. In addition to them, image of the teacher’s lips is displayed to help reading lips by using an automatic tracking video camera system.
