A relay (36, 38, 39, 40, 52) is provided to facilitate communication through a telephone system between deaf people (50) and hearing people (32). To overcome the speed limitation inherent in typing, the call assistant at the relay (36, 38, 39, 40, 52) does not type most words but, instead, re-voices the words spoken by the hearing person (32) into a computer (42) operating a voice recognition software package trained to the voice of that call assistant. The conversation-type flow of communication achieved by this type of relay enables the design of a new class of interpreters for the deaf. |
