Yes! As a profoundly deaf person, I have the hardest time with conversations, especially group conversations. If this works anywhere close to as advertised, it should help me out immensely. I'm very excited that someone is working in this space!
I envision a day when even normal hearing people wear hearing aids and have assisting devices to give them essentially super-hearing, or more selective hearing. It's kind of strange being profoundly deaf, but having situations where I can actually hear better than my friends, because my hearing aid filters out things!
Edit: I played around with it a bit by myself. It seems to work as well as any other text-to-speech, but I do like the interface. I'll test it out more this week and see how it goes!
Awesome, let us know via the app how you find it.
The key is for group conversations: multiple people talking, which is really dope for accuracy vs. your understanding, is my guess :)
