Abstract

Hearing and speech impaired people find it challenging to converse with ordinary. In India, about 63 million (6.3%) of the population suffers from auditory loss. They communicate through sign languages, which are based on visually conveyed sign patterns, which typically include hand movements. Sign language is not universal and not easy to learn. Many Artificial Intelligence (AI) based systems are present for the Sign Language conversion as a typical solution to this problem. But, most of the existing solutions, use American Standard Sign Language (ASL) . As per the research done for this project, Each country has its own sign language variant and in India, Indian Sign Language (ISL) is being followed. The major goal of the proposed system is to create an ISL Hand Gesture Motion Translation Tool that will assist the hearing and speech challenged community in transforming their voice and ideas into text so that they may communicate with others without huddles. The methodology is to identify isolated words and to design a dynamic hand gesture recognition system for ISL. The proposed system is built using Mediapipe which is used for key-point extraction combined with a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) architecture system design with Dense layers. It is capable to identify ISL Alphabets and words in real time environment.
