technology that easily translates ASL into written English
The SignAll 1.0 is the first product in the world that enables spontaneous communication between a Deaf and a hearing individual via automated ASL translation technology.
The system should be installed in a fixed position (in an office, a customer service desk, in a meeting room, etc.) where the Deaf and hearing party can sit down anytime and communicate via on-screen chat dialogue using their own language.
The Deaf person wears a colorful glove and signs to the camera, the colors on the gloves helps the technology to differentiate the fingers. The hearing person uses voice, the speech is picked up by automatic speech recognition
