WHY IT MATTERS
An accessibility need. A venue-scale opportunity.
37.5M
Audience
Approximately 37.5 million U.S. adults report some trouble hearing. That represents roughly 15% of American adults.
Real-time captioning offers another way for Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences to access lyrics, announcements, and spoken content at live events.
1.5B+
People worldwide live with some degree of hearing loss, demonstrating the global significance of communication accessibility.
Venues
Concert halls, theaters, arenas, festivals, and other live venues have an opportunity to provide more inclusive guest experiences.
Effective communication is an established accessibility responsibility. Captioning can complement existing accommodations, including ASL interpretation and assistive listening systems.
Greater choice in accessibility services can help venues serve a wider range of audience needs.
Platform
ECHOi is developing a centralized, venue-integrated system designed to turn professional audio into real-time captions delivered through wearable displays.
A shared processing and management architecture is intended to support multiple users, repeatable deployments, and consistent venue operations.
Captioning glasses are the first interface in a broader vision for an interconnected accessibility ecosystem.
Audience prevalence figures describe hearing-related needs, not ECHOi's estimated customer base or commercial market size. Platform capabilities described here are development goals, subject to technical validation and real-world testing. ECHOi is intended to expand accessibility options, not replace existing accommodations or independently establish ADA compliance.
