Loopy Systems Limited

Practical technology for clearer communication.

Loopy Systems builds practical communication, accessibility, speech-to-text and translation systems for real-world use. We are a small technical workshop: we design, prototype and run the things we build, then keep the ones that genuinely help people understand each other.

Built at Loopy

Three real projects: one R&D prototype, one study assistant, one current product.

Working R&D prototype

JarvisClassroom communication system

Jarvis was a working voice-controlled classroom communication and accessibility system. Speech was converted to text and displayed as captions on screens, and it could be used without keyboard interaction.

  • Push-to-talk on handheld radio hardware, plus sound-threshold logic, defined conversation start and stop boundaries.
  • Selectable large-format text supported readability at distance.
  • Designed for deaf and hard-of-hearing users, second-language learners and multilingual groups.
  • Teacher and facilitator control, with clear turn-taking, were central to the design.
  • In the classroom configuration documented by Loopy: no recordings, no logs, and no audio transmitted outside the room.

Jarvis worked as an R&D prototype. It was not rolled out as a full commercial classroom product: a robust deployment would have required purpose-built hardware with dedicated on/off controls and substantially more hardware investment.

Status

Prototype, documented and retired. Not currently available commercially. The input-boundary and readability work from Jarvis informs everything built since.

Current product

Jessica翻译友 · fanyiyou.com

Jessica is a one-to-one communication and translation tool for two people using their own phones. Each phone chooses the language it wants to see.

  • Normal phone keyboard dictation can be used as input.
  • Dictated text can be corrected before sending — better communication, rather than blindly translating a bad transcription.
  • Supports text communication and file transfer.
  • Also useful for same-language conversational subtitles and accessibility.
  • Jessica is not an always-listening microphone or live audio translator.

What connects the projects

Different projects, one thread: making spoken and written communication understandable for the people actually in the room.

Real-time captions

Speech converted to text and shown clearly, fast enough to follow a live conversation.

Translation

Language support where comprehension matters more than word-for-word speed.

Portable deployment

Built to run in ordinary rooms and on ordinary devices, without complex installation.

Accessibility first

For deaf and hard-of-hearing users, second-language users and multilingual groups.

Clear input and signal paths

Controlled audio in, predictable text out — the input path is the part that decides quality.

Readable display, simple operation

Large selectable text, obvious controls and operation that does not need training.
