The HomeAware alerting system can notify a deaf or hard of hearing person to different types of occurrences in their environment. A master receiving unit receives signals from different transmitters and can alert the user to this signal with extra loud alarms, flashing lights, and a bed vibrator. Bed vibrator can wake a person even from a deep sleep with its powerful pulses. Signals can come from a smoke/CO detector, a doorbell, a telephone, or a sound - such as a baby cry.
