Systems and related methods for visual indication of an occurrence of an event

A method of indicating an occurrence of an event, the method comprising:

• receiving, with at least one spatial visual indicator, a communication from a transceiver corresponding to a communication device for hearing-impaired users located remotely to the at least one spatial visual indicator, the communication indicating a visual indicator pattern that is associated with a detected event;
• and
• displaying the visual indicator pattern with a plurality of discrete illuminatable elements configured in at least a two-dimensional geometrical arrangement on the at least one spatial visual indicator.

A method of indicating an occurrence of an event, the method comprising:

• detecting an occurrence of an event with a control circuit corresponding to a video communication device configured to assist a hearing-impaired user in communicating with a far-end user;
• and
• transmitting, with a transceiver corresponding to the video communication device, a communication to one or more spatial visual indicators located remotely to the transceiver, the communication indicating a visual indicator pattern that is associated with the detected event, the one or more spatial visual indicators each comprising a plurality of discrete illuminatable elements configured in at least a two-dimensional geometrical arrangement for displaying the visual indicator pattern.

A spatial visual indicator system, comprising:

• a control circuit corresponding to a communication device configured to assist a hearing-impaired user in communicating with far-end users, the control circuit configured to detect an occurrence of an event corresponding to a visual indicator pattern to be displayed by a plurality of discrete illuminatable elements arranged in at least a two-dimensional geometrical configuration;
• and
• a transceiver operably coupled to the control circuit, the transceiver configured to send a communication indicating the visual indicator pattern corresponding to the detected event to at least one spatial visual indicator that is configured to display the visual indicator pattern, and that is located remotely to the transceiver.
