H4AR is a device for assisting hard-of-hearing people in their everyday lives, by visually alerting them about the direction of important sources of sound. The device is a wearable pair of glasses, equipped with an array of microphones and augmented reality through a heads up display. This microphone array will identify human speech, and determine the direction of the sound. This information will be displayed as a visual cue in the form of an arrow on the heads up display, greatly increasing the individual’s peripheral awareness by allowing them to identify and turn towards people talking to them.
