A Wearable Computer Based American Sign Language Recognizer
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modern wearable computer designs package workstation level performance in systems small enough to be worn as clothing. These machines enable technology to be brought where it is needed the most for the handicapped: everyday mobile environments. This paper describes a research effort to make a wearable computer that can recognize (with the possible goal of translating) sentence level American Sign Language (ASL) using only a baseball cap mounted camera for input. Current accuracy exceeds 97% per word on a 40 word lexicon.

Real-Time American Sign Language Recognition Using Desk and Wearable Computer Based Video
We present two real-time hidden Markov model-based systems for recognizing sentence-level continuous American Sign Language (ASL) using a single camera to track the user’s unadorned hands. The first system observes the user from a desk mounted camera and achieves 92% word accuracy. The second system mounts the camera in a cap worn by the user and achieves 98% accuracy (97% with an unrestricted ...

In this study, we suggest and implement Multi-Modal Sentential Dialog System (MMSDS) integrating 2 sensory channels with speech and haptic information based on ubiquitous computing and WWW for clear communication. The importance and necessity of MMSDS for HCI as following: 1) it can allow more interactive and natural communication functions between the hearing-impaired and hearing person withou...
متن کاملAutomatic Recognition of Auslan Finger-spelling using Hidden Markov Models
In recent years, gesture recognition has received much attention from research communities. Computer vision-based gesture recognition has many potential applications in the area of human-computer interaction as well as sign language recognition. Sign languages use a combination of hand shapes, motion and locations as well as facial expressions. Finger-spelling is a manual representation of alph...

The main objective of this paper proposes an Embedded System employing Hybrid Neural Network (NN) for an Efficient Static Recognizer. The Hybrid Neural Network consists of Active Contour Model (ACM) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) in which the input data of hand sign is pre-processed and segmented using ACM and that image is feed forward to CNN classifier to classify the image for free-a...
