AR Helper For Hearing Impaired

Project Title

AR Helper For Hearing Impaired

Project Area of Specialization Augmented and Virtual RealityProject Summary

This project uses Microsoft Cognitive Services Speech SDK, Blender Animations, Unity Gaming Engine, OpenCV, and Android Studio to create an application that translates speech input into American Sign Language (ASL) real time through an Augmented Reality (AR) approach.

Project Objectives

• Our aim is to develop such application which can help the hearing impaired individuals to communicate with normal persons. The normal person will not need to communicate with hearing impaired person using sign language.
• To develop an Augmented reality based application for hearing impaired people. To provide information access and services to deaf people.

Project Implementation Method

Benefits of the Project

According to world health organization Over 466 million people of the world are suffers from hearing loss. InterpretAR is a mobile application set to improve the quality of life for individuals who rely on sign language as their main medium of communication. Though the application’s usability extends universally, its main purpose is twofold:

1. To solve everyday inconveniences for the hearing impaired

2. To familiarize individuals afflicted with acute hearing loss with sign language
