INTRODUCTION

What is Sign Language ??Communicating language used primarily by deaf people.

Uses different medium such as hands, face, or eyes rather than vocal tract or ears for communication purpose. Sign language is used by deaf & dumb people.Smart glove will be used to translate sign language into text.In sign language signs are used to communicate.Our system is aimed at maximum recognitionof gesture without any training.This makes the system usable at public places where there is no room for long training sessions. Communication using sign language

REASON BEHIND MAKING THIS SOFTWARE..?

There are similar types of gadget which already exist but there

are various drawbacks in them.

The glove which we are going to develop will translate sign

language to facilitate conversation between speech and hearing

impaired people and those are not conversant with sign language.

EXISTING SYSTEM

●Since beginning in 2003, the Microsoft Imagine Cup has tasked students the

world over with developing technology aimed at solving real-world problems.

●Students were asked to build their project around a specific Millennium

Development Goal (MDG).

●However, with sign language varying greatly around the world, the users can

teach the system new gestures and modify existing ones.

PROPOSED SYSTEM

The sign language translator that we are going to developed uses a glove fitted with sensors that can interpret the 16 English letters in Indian Sign Language.

The glove uses IR transmitter receiver, RF transmitter, Encoder Decoder IC three dimensions to gather data on each finger’s position and the hand’s motion to differentiate the letters.

SCOPE OF THE PROJECT

Speechless people will be able to communicate with normal people. Speechless people will be able to communicate with Speechless

people as well as deaf people. Safety is one of the highest priorities for this translator. The

translator is carefully to not expose the user to any current from the circuit.

DATABASE OF ONE HANDED ALPHABETS AND NUMBERS OF SIGN LANGUAGE

MATERIALS

HARDWARE REQUIREMENT: 512MB RAM 40 GB Hard Disk IR transmitter receiver Encode Decoder IC Contact Switches LED Single Stand Wire Arduino Board

SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT Visual Studio 2005 / 08 / 10 VB.net framework 2.0 & above Operating System: XP service 2 and above

IMPLEMENTATION REQUIREMENTS : Monitor Glove

EXTERNAL REQUIREMENTS : Battery

ADVANTAGES

It requires fewer components so its cost is low.

Small in size: Due to small size we can place its hardware on

our hand easily.

Light weight.

Flexible to users.

Easy to operate: Anyone can operate it easily.

Real time translation.

LIMITATION

Range up to 100m only.

Facial expressions are not considered.

FUTURE WORK

This project did not focus on facial expressions although it is

well known that facial expressions convey important part of

sign-languages.

This system can be implemented in many application areas

examples include accessing government websites whereby no

video clip for deaf and mute is available or filling out forms

online whereby no interpreter may be present to help.

CONCLUSION

This technology could mean a new way for about 70 million people with hearing and speech impairment to verbally communicate and connect to people around them.

This project aims to lower the communication gap between the deaf or mute community and the normal world.
