Abstract

It is extremely difficult for people who are deaf to communicate their message to normal people. Communication becomes extremely difficult in case of an emergency, while travelling or among unfamiliar people because most people are not trained in hand sign language. We propose a voice aid system that allows deaf persons to communicate with regular people by using hand motions and gestures. This system uses motion and flex sensors, as well as a speaker unit. The circuitry that runs this system is fuelled by batteries. The system includes various pre-programmed messages such as "need help," "where is the washroom," and other common phrases that enable deaf individuals communicate basic information. The technology analyses a person's hand motions for different variants. It also has a trigger sensor to provide the impression that the person wants to activate the device and say something.
