Hello.
My name is Marco.
I am a student of the engineering career in automation and industrial control in CHILE, my final project is based on making the translator glove of sign language to text and audio.
I have already reviewed several pages and I have found a basic code to start the project, but I would like to know if someone from this forum has more knowledge about this type of work. From already thank you very much
I'm sure that a more descriptive subject line would get you a lot more attention, especially of people that happen to have worked on that particular topic.
If I understand you right, you may have to split your project into the real time glove handling, on an Arduino, and the translation on a PC (like) computer. On the PC you'll need programs to edit and manage the gesture data base, recognition of gestures, and translation into text and audio.
por el momento estamos trabajando con 5 sensores flexible, arduino uno y pantalla LCD 16x2.
queremos que para cada signo, los 5 valores de la resistencia me impriman la letra en la pantalla.
luego aplicaremos codigo con acelerometro
@MarcoMaes, please post in English in this section of the Forum. There is a separate Spanish section if you prefer to use it.
If you edit your Original Post you can change the Title. My suggestion would be "translator glove of sign language to text and audio."

While I think if someone is within proximity to put on a glove, they could just be given a keyboard, I'll play along with the project.
I don't see the need for an Arduino, all the processing should be done by the PC that's already present. Camera based mocap is how such current gesture programs work.
As this sounds like it's still in the idea phase, consider the goal or usefulness that you would pitch.
INTP:
consider the goal or usefulness that you would pitch.
Often these uni projects are just a list if stuff the lecturer comes up with and the students bid for the ones they like. In such a case, the usefulness is not an issue, and the student doesn't need to "pitch" a product, just fulfil the scope as stated by the faculty: make a product to do this and this.
(Not saying that's the case here necessarily.)
Sounds like MacroMaes and shrikant_arts have the same lecturer/project list.
See this thread
Even if it's a tech demo, the glove is meaningless unless it's overall position is also tracked because sign language isn't just the spelling out of words with individual letters. Gestures possibly involving both hands are used to convey complete ideas or concepts. Hands with palms together and fingers together, put against the side of your head, tilt your head, means sleep. Will a simple glove be enough to pick that up?
Being in Chile, maybe they have their own Chilean Sign Language and not the codified American Sign Language (ASL) so idk if things are easier or harder, I imagine a glove just not being enough.
