Conversation of Sign Language to Speech with Human Gestures

AbstractInability to speak is considered to be true disability. People with this disability use different modes to communicate with others, there are n number of methods available for their communication one such common method of communication is sign language. Sign language allows people to communicate with human body language; each word has a set of human actions representing a particular expression. The motive of the paper is to convert the human sign language to Voice with human gesture understanding and motion capture. This is achieved with the help of Microsoft Kinect a motion capture device from Microsoft. There are a few systems available for sign language to speech conversion but none of them provide natural user interface. For consideration if a person who has a disability to speak can stand perform the system and the system converts the human gestures as speech and plays it loud so that the person could actually communicate to a mass crowd gathering. Also the system is planned in bringing high efficiency for the users for improved communication
