Now here's an idea whose time has come (no pun intended). The Nikita Golovlev AlarMe watch is designed to give a visible warning to hearing-impaired users if something threatening is going on nearby. The watch uses a set of omnidirectional microphones and does some signal processing to determine if an alarm is detected. It alerts the user both visually and by vibrating, sending only "caution" alerts when something less threatening happens.
