| TITLE | Smart Glove for Gesture to Speech Translation |
|---|---|
| ABSTRACT | Communication between speech-impaired people and normal individuals is often difficult because sign language is not widely understood. The Smart Glove for Gesture to Speech Translation project is designed to solve this problem by converting hand gestures into audible speech. The system uses a glove embedded with flex sensors and motion sensors to detect finger and hand movements. These sensors capture the gestures made by user and send the data to a microcontroller. The microcontroller processes the gesture data and identifies the corresponding words or sentences. The recognized gesture is converted into speech using a text-to-speech module and played through a speaker. This system helps speech-impaired individuals communicate more easily and effectively with others. The proposed device is portable, easy to use, and can improve social interaction and independence for people with communicate disabilities |
