Abstract

By translating hand gestures into a series of words or speech, sign language recognition (SLR) aims to improve communication between deaf and dumb people and the general public. Despite the fact that this activity has a significant societal impact, it is nevertheless challenging due to the complexity and wide variation of hand behavior. Existing SLR techniques use hand-composed pieces to characterize sign language movement and develop division models based on those aspects. It's difficult to create reliable features that respond to a wide range of hand movements. The goal of this project is to develop a sign language recognition project using CNN and predict the output in the form of text and audio.
