Design of Communication Interpreter for Deaf and Dumb Person

In this paper, we describe gesture based device for deaf and dumb person as communication for a person, who cannot hear is visual, not auditory. Generally dumb people use sign language for communication, but they find difficulty in communicating with others who dont understand sign language. So there is a barrier in communication between these two communities. This work aims to lower this barrier in communication. The main aim of the proposed project is to develop a cost effective system which can give voice to voiceless people with the help of Smart Gloves. With the proposed work sign language is converted into text and speech using flex sensor and microcontroller. It means that using smart gloves communication will not be a barrier between two different communities.
