Abstract
Communication comes in different forms, including verbal (spoken), written word, lip reading, sign language and even body language. But, the communication between the visually impaired and speech impaired people is very difficult with the present technology available. The goal of our research work is to bridge the gap between visually impaired people on one hand and hearing & speech impaired people on the other. Since the former cannot see and the latter use sign language, there is currently no means of communication between such people who are unfortunately in significantly large numbers in a country like India. Our paper aims to tide over by introducing inexpensive software in the communication path that converts the speech to sign on one hand and converts text to speech on the other hand. In addition we also provide a feature that allows our user to open files by using commands that are statically included in the project. Our research paper provides an inexpensive system which recognizes images and translates them into speech and vice versa for the benefit of people.
