SMART DEAF-MUTE GLOVE

Abstract

Generally, people with speech or deafness have a problem in everyday communication with others. They can only interact with Sign Language as the main way to interact with others. Moreover, only a few people understand this Sign Language and a few others do not understand it, it is very difficult for these people with disabilities to deliver the message they want to fulfil. Somepeople will interact more strongly because they have a "deaf voice" and this attitude will make them unpopular. That is the nature of their self. Thus, the gloves equipped with flex sensors that have been created to overcome the shortcomings of these deaf and dumb people. The existence of these sophisticated tools has given a little help to the dumb and deaf. Communicating with the whole world, this tool will convert Sign Language (hand gestures) that is understood by the deaf and dumb to the Common Language that everyone understands and it can be programmed with all languages in the world as a result of the cooperation of all countries to make this tool available to all corners. The exception of the flex sensor on the glove works to stream the dataaccording to the angular or degree motion of the flex sensor itself created or moved by the finger of the wearer. The flex sensor has different resistance and this depends on the amount of angle or degree to which the wearer moves, the more the finger moves the more resistance value is produced. Then, the resulting output will be converted into digital form by the microcontroller and it respondsthrough user’s phone.
