Abstract
Because of the complexity of the Japanese language, it is not easy to prepare captioned video tapes for deaf persons. In order to make Japanese captioning easy, quick, and faithful to speech, we developed and tested a new, convenient system that consists of a Japanese word processor, a superimposing device with a special-purpose interface, and a set of commercial video equipment. A brief description of the developed system is given, together with the results obtained.
