The patent pending ASL Emergency
Alert System was created following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and the needless violence at numerous schools across
our county. The devastation in Louisiana was another reminder to our country that we need to update our Emergency Warning
Systems for all Americans.
People who are deaf need an Emergency Alert System (EAS)
in American Sign Language (ASL). ASL is not text but rather a visual language full of expression, with a different syntax
than English. ASL is the first language of the Deaf.
Imagine during an emergency, a warning was given to the
public in a language you do not understand. This is the current situation for people who are deaf.
The new ASL Emergency Alert System can deliver a video
warning message in ASL within seconds, to multiple display units such as cell phones or mobile PDA devices.
