Discussion of the Need
Many hearing impaired individuals increase their television volume to uncomfortably high levels. Even then, the hearing impaired person may miss key parts of news commentary and accented language programs (e.g., British programs). Listening comprehension becomes even more difficult in the presence of competing sounds such as dish washers, running sink water, air conditioning fans, and the conversations of others.
