Sign language based SMS generator for hearing impaired people

摘要

Sign Language provides information by using hand gestures and other body parts for projecting thoughts and meanings. It does not have any theoretical form and producing signs using video approach is very expensive, hence sign animation is best explanation. This paper explains implementation of SMS generator for deaf people in Indian Sign Language. For this system, three tools have been developed: the first one includes advanced visual interface for user (for a deaf person to indicate sign sequence), second one has a language translator (for sequence generation of words containing Sign Language into English to send SMS), third for SMS (Short Message Service) into speech translation system. The graphic interface permits a sequence of signs to be characterized by means of various services. An animation module has been added for playing the sign actions through the GIF file.
