Real Time Conversion of English Audio to American Sign Language and Vice Versa

The hearing-impaired people form an ample community with required needs that technologists have started to address. There is no device to date that can convert audio to sign language and sign language to audio in real-time. This problem can be handled using an interpreter system for speech to sign language to translate English speech to American Sign Language video in real time[2]. Similarly the sign language is translated to speech using a device with arduino board and flex sensors. Gestures made by the wearer are detected using sensors, and as per the pre-defined conditions for numerous values generated by sensors, corresponding messages were sent to the Android device using Global System for Mobile (GSM) [4], which will convert these text messages to speech.
