A startup created a gadget to help the deaf 'see' sounds



Rich checks out a potentially life saving gadget that helps the deaf "see" sounds.

A tech startup called Wavio is helping the deaf "see" sounds. The company was started by three deaf men to tackle the issue of recognizing sounds in the home.

We spoke to one of the co-founders, Spencer Montan:

"I went through a flooding in my house while my family was out of town and I was unable to hear the water pipes busting and the water flooding the house. Having this kind of technology is really a shift in the way we live, we have less stressors and we have more peace of mind," explained Montan.
