This document describes a proposed system to convert sign language gestures into text and speech to help facilitate communication between deaf or mute individuals and others who do not understand sign language. The system would use sensors in a glove or camera image processing to recognize hand gestures representing letters, words, or concepts. The gestures would be translated into text by a microcontroller or single-board computer like Raspberry Pi and then into speech by a text-to-speech module. This would allow deaf or mute people to communicate with others without requiring the other person to know sign language. The document discusses different techniques for recognizing gestures including glove-based, vision-based, and hybrid approaches.
