real-life conversation subtitles using smart glasses?

Ive been thinking about working on for a while, as my wife (profound hearing loss) has been telling me that it would be much more useful than hearing aids, especially for higher levels of hearing loss. Looking for inputs. Do you think its useful? Have you seen or used any such products before?

Basically my idea is to build normal looking glasses with a small projector in them that displays subtitles for you to see as someone else is talking (the other person cant see them). Kind of like google glass but much much simpler, affordable and looking like regular glasses and not something from a sci fi movie.

Interesting idea. Random eye contact is a part of social interaction, the speaker will have to get used to the oddness of the listeners eyes dart from reading the text.

Or you can make them shaded as to not distract the speaker.

There's actually a landline phone you can buy that comes with an LCD screen. The phone takes what the person at the other end says, and turns it into text for the receiver to read. It's a phone for people who are hard of hearing (and elderly).
