Sign Language Glove using Arduino

Abstract

Communication between speakers and non-speakers of American Sign Language can be problematic, inconvenient, and expensive. This project attempts to bridge the communication gap by designing a portable glove that captures the user’s American Sign Language gestures and outputs the translated text on a laptop or a personal computer. The glove is equipped with flex sensors, contact sensors, and an accelerometer to measure the flexion of the fingers, the contact between fingers, and the rotation of the hand. The glove’s Arduino microcontroller analyses the sensor readings to identify the gesture. Using this device, one day speakers of American Sign Language may be able to communicate with others in an affordable and convenient way.
