Development of Device for Gesture to Speech Conversion for the Mute Community

摘要

The mute community around the globe has a hard time communicating with the rest of the world's population. This communication gap is there because a dumb person uses sign language which is not comprehensible by a normal person. This project mainly focuses on removing the barrier of communication between the mute community and the people not familiar with the concept of sign language so that the messages that a dumb person is trying to relay is understandable to a person with no knowledge of sign language. The design of the device is based on embedded systems. Flex sensors and microcontroller are the key components.
