[quote=Anonymous]I don't see why theaters don't just embrace technology. Just have AFI, AMC, Regal Cinemas, etc. have these available for patrons who need them. [color=blue]Sony Entertainment Access Glasses are sort of like 3-D glasses, but for captioning. The captions are projected onto the glasses and appear to float about 10 feet in front of the user. They also come with audio tracks that describe the action on the screen for blind people, or they can boost the audio levels of the movie for those who are hard of hearing.[/color] [url]https://www.npr.org/sections/alltechconsidered/2013/05/12/183218751/new-closed-captioning-glasses-help-deaf-go-out-to-the-movies[/url] [img]https://media.npr.org/assets/img/2013/05/11/accessglasses_large_verge_medium_landscape_wide-14f5ae13ef265a6bc4a8a131694d701c7dd2fcd0-s300-c85.png[/img] [/quote]
