METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR VISUAL DISPLAY OF AUDIO CUES IN VIDEO GAMES

摘要

Methods and systems are provided that provide visual display of audio signals in a video game. In one implementation, the system provides video game audio cues to deaf and hard of hearing players with audio cue reactive light emitting diode (LED) displays. These may be in the form of two lighting components placed on either side of a visual display. Audio cue reactive LED displays increase audio accessibility by converting audio stimuli into visual stimuli. Audio cue reactive LED displays can be attached to the left side and right side of any video game display, for example, to provide consistent sensory feedback that does not have to be in constant physical contact with deaf and hard of hearing players.
