Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Although deaf and hard of hearing (D/HH) people have various communication ways such as sign language, conversation by writing, and lip-reading, each way has several disadvantages in one-to-many conversation. % such as meetings or conventions. This paper proposes a multi-modal visualization application in order to support D/HH people in understanding conversation with hearing people. Here, the term multi-modal visualization means providing informative contents by presenting multiple visualization modes. We suppose that selecting and combining each visualization mode by D/HH people themselves would be helpful for understanding of conversation. Additionally, we conduct a preliminary experiment for evaluating recognition accuracy of Web Speech API, which is voice recognition open software provided by Google.
