Final Year Project
Project Title
A Vision Based Platform for Sign Language Interpretation
Description
My final year project was to develop an interpretation system for people with hearing disabilities so that they are no longer dependent on sign language interpreters. This system uses neural networks to translate sign language gestures into corresponding words, sentences, alphabets, and numbers in the English Language. This system is cost effective and portable as it uses Raspberry pi, a camera, a light-weight battery, and an LCD screen for the user speaking in sign language to generate translations.
