Abstract

The growing desire for accessible communication among the deaf and hard-of-hearing has led to the creation of real-time sign language interpreters. This study focuses on the development and implementation of a comprehensive system that combines sign language recognition and speech-to-sign conversion. The system uses powerful machine learning models, web technologies, and APIs to translate sign language into spoken language and vice versa, allowing for seamless communication between hearing and non-hearing people. The paper describes the system architecture, significant challenges like accuracy, latency, and scalability, and the strategies used to address them. Our findings show that using modern AI approaches and real-time processing frameworks can considerably improve accessibility and bridge communication barriers across various linguistic modes.
