This is such a great example of the synergies between accessibility for a disability and for the general public!

It allows people with hearing impairments indicate they cannot hear, and then answer the typical convenience store questions by just pointing. And, as with most things designed to be accessible, it can help others too – in this case non-Japanese speakers!
Well done 7-11!
Yes! So glad it covers contractors as well. Removes the ability to shift blame etc
So excited!
