A wearable accessibility device that turns selected sounds into wrist vibrations and colour alerts, and offers live captions in English or Arabic.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-28 issue.
For
People with hearing loss who need wearable sound alerts
Worth noticing
The page says the on-device model checks 521 sound classes, while custom sounds can be taught from five recordings.

Field notes

The described sound-alert path uses a microphone, a 0.975-second audio window, and checks every half-second; the page says recognition runs on the wearable itself. Users can teach a household sound by recording it five times and assigning a colour and rhythm. Speech captions follow a separate route through Deepgram Nova-3 and a Cloudflare Workers relay, while the sign preview is explicitly marked beta and not interpretation.
