Smart Finger Gesture Recognition System for Silent Speakers

Silent speakers face a lot of problems when it comes to communicate their thoughts and views. Furthermore, only few people know the sign language of these silent speakers. They tend to feel awkward to take part any exercises with the typical individuals. They require gesture based communication mediators for their interchanges. The solution to this problem is to provide them a better way to take their message across, “Smart Finger Gesture Recognition System for Silent Speakers” which has been proposed. Instead of using sign language, gesture recognition is done with the help of finger movements. The system consists of data glove, flex sensors, raspberry pi. The flex sensors are fitted on the data gloves and it is used to recognize the finger gestures. Then the ADC module is used to convert the analog values into digital form. After signal conversion, the value is given to Raspberry Pi 3, and it converts the signals into audio output as well as text format using software tool. The proposed framework limits correspondence boundary between moronic individuals and ordinary individuals. Therefore, the recognized finger gestures are conveyed into speech and text so that the normal people can easily communicate with dumb people.
