Any ideas which improve quality of life

Do you have any ideas like something which helps hearing impaired people to communicate with others who don't know sign language, for example a glove, which translates sign language to text which is displayed or even translates it to speech?

Any kind of things like that or can be something useful for anybody, any kind of interactions like gestures, movements, speech, etc.

Any ideas even for fun thus make people happy, for example camera system which detects your movements thus play music according to your mood thus makes you feel better since music is the food of life thus less people will need to go to psychologist or less antidepressant drugs will be sold. Since mental health reflects to life and physical health, it is very important thus quality of life may be improved in that sense. Even can be think of replacement of the disc jockey since music will be made or played according to the movements of the people.

I think that the universality of mobile phones may negate the usage of a motion sensing glove. In the past, deaf and hard of hearing had to carry a notepad and pencil to communicate with hearing, non-signing persons. It was awkward to expect hearing people to scribble notes. But now, with practically everyone carrying a mobile phones, and a new generation raised on texting, we can all whip out our phones and communicate in a more natural fashion - even if the device is not used for sending the text message, but only displaying the text.

Voice to text and text to voice on mobile devices and landline phones could have a future in hearing/deaf communication.
