sComm’s goal is to become the ubiquitous market leader in providing the deaf and hard of hearing community with 100% accessible communication with the hearing world and with the environment around them. To this end, the UbiDuo serves as the premier solution for face-to-face communication when a sign language interpreter is not available, and now sComm is introducing UbiTerps as a new and innovative way of providing video remote interpreting (VRI) services.
Who better to run a sign language interpreting service than a team that can provide a variety of perspectives from both the deaf and hearing worlds? Our team, which is composed of a mix of deaf, hard of hearing, and hearing members, brings a wealth of experience in working with interpreters and technology to the table. We’ve put our heads and hands together to create a unique, one-of-a-kind VRI experience. We want to take UbiTerps in new directions, where no interpreting service has ever gone before.
Our VRI services are offered based on a pre-arranged schedule. We are taking the lead to offer more reasonable and affordable rates than are typically charged for VRI services.
