An American startup has come up with an app which will open up movie streaming to all. Actiview uses technology to amplify sound and provide screen descriptions, all through a wireless device which can be plugged in at home, work, or theatres. The technology is transmitted via wifi, meaning there is no need for buffering and those with hearing or sight difficulties are able to tune in to a movie in the same way a person with perfect hearing or sight does.
