Abstract: Disclosed is a system (100) for personalized bidirectional assistive communication for speech- and hearing-impaired individuals. The system (100) integrates a processing unit (102), a wearable touch input interface (104), a text-to-speech module (106), a speech-to-text module (108), a Bluetooth communication module (110), a Bluetooth-enabled speaker (112), a directional microphone (114), and a wearable display unit (116). Text entered by the user through the wearable touch input interface (104) is processed by the text-to-speech module (106) and converted into audible speech, which is reproduced through the Bluetooth-enabled speaker (112) positioned proximate to the user. The generated speech is personalized by adjusting parameters including frequency, pitch, and loudness according to user characteristics. Speech from another person is captured by the directional microphone (114), converted into text by the speech-to-text module (108), and displayed on the wearable display unit (116), thereby enabling compact, portable, offline-capable, and near-normal two-way communication. Fig. 1 is the reference figure.
