Abstract

However, there exists a significant social barrier due to communication limitations even though Sign Language (SL) is the most viable form of expression for the deaf and mute community. We introduce a new technology that can yield communication with Text-to-Sign translation and Text, Speech, and images converted into Indian Sign Language outputs. This system caters explicitly to the Indian Sign Language community, a sector that has recently garnered comparatively less attention in terms of technical innovations, distinguishing it from competing scenarios. The proposed system is novel in that it will cater to the Indian Sign Language community, a widely under-served population group in terms of technological advancements. Our proposed approach has several features such as incorporating advanced Deep Learning (DL) techniques for the system to accurately identify hand gestures accurately for real-time recognition, using a dataset collected from Indian Sign Language Research and Training Centre, Kaggle in enhancing cultural specificity. It is a modular system that enables smooth integration into the different sectors of society, educational institutions, public service and healthcare centers. It forms a basic system that could lead on to more social inclusion throughout a variety of architecture, all of which could be extended in time. This is at the service of empowering the deaf-mute community and actively integrating this population into the social context.
