Wearable Sensors Could Translate Sign Language Into English

- Wearable sensors could one day interpret the gestures in sign language and translate them into English, providing a high-tech solution to communication problems between deaf people and those who don’t understand sign language.
- Engineers at Texas A&M University are developing a wearable device that can sense movement and muscle activity in a persons arm.
- It works by figuring out the gestures a person is making by using to distinct sensors. One that responds to the motion of the wrist and the other to the muscular movements in the arm.
- A program then wirelessly receives this information and converts the data into the English translation.
