AirScript translator is the world’s first closed caption system for theatre productions by Cambridge Consultants. The AirScript delivers subtitles from each show via personal handsets in real time, in a wide selection of languages simultaneously, allowing both non-native speaking audience members and those with hearing impairments to enjoy the production. The Wi-fi service for the script delivery is $10, and eight languages are available with translations done by professionals.
A full color, high resolution widescreen display and a high reliability wireless link delivers subtitles from the performance to personal handsets in real time, supporting both non-native speaking audience members and those who are deaf or have hearing impairments. Audience members simply select the language via a touch screen and then sit back. No other inputs are required. Importantly, the speed of the subtitles is controlled by the stage prompt, thus ensuring the captions that appear on the AirScript handsets will always remain synchronized with the action on stage.
