For those who live in a world without sound, sign language becomes an important means for them to communicate with their hearts and express their ideas. But in many cases, sign language is only convenient for communication between deaf and mute people. For normal people, sign language is still Like the Bible, in order to eliminate communication barriers between deafness and hearing impairment, many researchers have racked their brains to try to solve it better.
According to the Daily Mail, two sophomores from the University of Washington, Navid Azodi and Thomas Pryor, have now developed a glove that translates sign language. They named it SignAloud.
With built-in sensors, SignAloud captures the wearer's American Sign Language (ASL) and sends the data to a nearby computer via Bluetooth transmission. The computer system selects the closest vocabulary from the American Sign Language database and reads it out through the speaker. It can also display the statement through the display.

The computer system was developed based on a series of machine learning algorithms for sign language gestures. In practice, if the gesture can match the corresponding sound, it can be played through the speaker.
In the demo video, we can see the inventors Thomas Pryor and Navid Azodi wearing these gloves to make various gestures, while the computer is doing "simultaneous translation", he said: "Hello, my name is Thomas, this It is Navid. We are a competitor of the Lemelson-MIT Inventive Student Award."
The two students at the University of Washington won the Lemelson-MIT Award for an innovative design of this smart glove that converts American sign language into English, with a prize of $10,000.
