Recognition of Voice and Text Using Hand Gesture

Electronic and communication Engineering

“Speech” and “gestures” are the expressions, which are mostly used in communication between human beings. Learning of their use begins with the first years of life. In human communication, the use of speech and gestures is completely coordinated. Machine gesture and sign language recognition is about recognition of gestures and sign language using gloves. A number of hardware techniques are used for gathering information about body positioning; typically either image-based (using cameras, moving lights etc) or device-based (using instrumented gloves, position trackers etc.), although hybrids are beginning to come about. However, getting the data is only the first step. The second step, that of recognizing the sign or gesture once it has been captured is much more challenging, especially in a continuous stream. In fact currently, this is the focus of the research. A text and speech conversion was successfully developed and implemented using microcontroller. The results were found out and observed. An extended version of the project can be developed by including more and more functions and commands in the code. Thus we can make a real time text and speech conversion with many functions and varied modifications.
