By just a looking it, It’s hard for us to know if hearing impaired people have obstacles. Therefore, Hearing impaired people cannot understand of the circumstances, and they cannot get supports enough. They often live without telling they have obstacles people around them themselves. The purpose of this study, we will develop the system that visually notifies the dangerous sounds generated outside the visual field. We construct the database of environmental sounds, and select the dangerous sound from the environmental sound. This system checks the waveform data and dangerous sound database, and displays danger on the monitor if it meets conditions such as volume and distance from the source. This system displays characters using “realistic fonts” that we have developed from before, that is the expression method expressing the feeling of sound using manga technique. In this study, we will report outline of this research and a prototype of our system. We record the sound supposed to be dangerous sounds with variety of directions and range from sound source using microphone array. And we compare the waveform data for each microphone recorded, and verify the features. This system identifies three kinds of sounds and displays using realistic fonts reflecting volume and direction of sound source.
