A Robust Business Specific Real-Time Sign Language Translator

Abstract

Abstract: Communication is a great way of expressing yourself but not everyone is capable of communication. No, not everyone chooses to be silent, While some are born deaf and mute, others become one later in life due to certain conditions. The word “dumb” is quite offensive so I will address to someone who cannot speak as mute person throughout this paper. Returning to the topic this paper will enable a more effective way to fill the communication gap between deaf and mute person and normal person especially in places with crowd where special-abled person becomes nervous and anxious to make the business owner understand of his needs easily and are unable to express themselves. In order to remove this barrier and enable the effective communication between the special-abled buyer and the business owner, I have created our own data set of hand gestures and trained using Google Teachable Machine for common sentences that are exchanged between the buyer and seller.
