SIGN LANGUAGE TO SPEECH TRANSALATOR

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

Hello Ben,

My name Benny and i watch all of your videos.I am interested in tech stuffs .Well this project came to my mind when i saw people who are not able to speak needs a voice.Then i saw there was a machine made named UNI which did the same functionality that is converting Hand sign languge to voice using a speaker of high  sound quality.But when i came to think of it there are people who not only use hand sign language but also body sign language as well.So i want to see a machine made that can read hand and body sign language to voice and speech generating device.My concern for building this device is it cannot be portable.So when i watch your videos i understood you are a specialist in modding things to being portable.

 

The list of things you can use or need

  1. A motion sensor that can read hand and body language.For example:LEAP MOTION,KINECT SENSOR,ASUS XITION PRO
  2. Developing a program that can convert hand and body sign to voice.
  3. Making it portable like making the device like a small robot that can follow people like your robot bag carrier device.
  4. Making it awesome
  5. Using a microcomputer or laptop  which can process and record all the motion captured by these cameras.

I Hope you take this request as an build and i can see this build in your channel.This can be a  big help for people with disabilities .

    Hi Benny

    You seem to be passionate about this project and have a good idea about how to approach it. Perhaps you could pick this up and run with it.

    I could pick up and run with the program but i am not having any resources,money or experience to do this project.I am a tenth grader so i don't have any income.If i had money for all the things and machinery i would try to do it.But Ben on the other hand has resources,skill,and experience in doing like this challenging projects.

    You're at the perfect age to start learning about problem solving and electronics. Problems can be solved with limited budgets if approached from a slightly different angle.

    A quick internet search using the worlds favourite search engine brings up pages like this: http://people.ece.cornell.edu/land/courses/ece4760/FinalProjects/f2014/rdv28_mjl256/webpage/index.html

    which goes into great detail about the process and even provides source code, parts lists, and associated costs.

     

    There is a rich and vibrant community here who would be more than happy to assist and support you as a project progresses.
