Development of Sign Language using Flex Sensors

Sign Language is not familiar to those who are not deaf or dumb. When humans talk to each other, they convey their words through both speech and gestures. For a deaf and dumb individual, it is really difficult to lead a normal life with such a big communication barrier. This affects their social life as well as relationships. So, this framework is developed to assist them and help them in conveying their message easily. The creation of such a device involves both electronics and computer engineering knowledge. It will include flex sensors, Arduino, Bluetooth module, accelerometer, glove and an android application to display the results. The framework plans to reduce the communication barrier between a normal individual and a deaf/dumb individual. Also, the aim is to realize the gaps and options available in this field to further improve the framework.
