Gesture Recognition for Sign Language using Machine Learning

Millions of deaf and hard-of-hearing people globally rely on sign language as the fundamental tool for communication. However, a huge communication gap exists between the sign language users and the larger community which greatly hinders their interaction in all aspects. In order to improve communication for individuals who rely on sign language, this research aims to address this issue by creating an advanced gesture recognition model that can properly identify and understand sign language motions from video. This system interprets sign language motions from streaming video streams using computer vision and machine learning. It facilitates translation of these signs into text or voice making sure that there are no impediments to communication and everybody feels included. Consequently, this technology opens up possibilities of a more connected society, towards inclusive societies that are friendlier to both users of sign languages and other members of society. In conclusion, the project is about inventing an innovative approach that would help empower sign language users by removing limitations associated with effective communication within our world today. The use of modern technology will enable us to bridge all communication gaps that pose significant challenges, thus promoting greater inclusivity across various dimensions of life since it only knows one way which is forward.
