Abstract

Voice and Language is the main thing for human to communicate with each other. Due to hearing ability we can understand thoughts of each other. Even nowadays we can give commands using voice recognition. But what if one absolutely cannot hear anything and eventually cannot speak. So, The Sign Language is used as main communicating tool for hearing impaired and mute people, and it also to ensure an independent life for them, the automatic interpretation of sign language is an extensive research area. With the use of technology such as image processing and artificial intelligence, many techniques and algorithms have been developed in this area. Every sign language recognition system is trained for recognizing the signs and converting them into respective speech. The proposed system aims to provide speech to speechless, in this paper the double handed Indian Sign Language is captured as a series of images and it is processed with the help of Python and then it is converted to speech and text.
