R. Sharanya · International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology · 2019
Blind and deaf/dumb people face problems in communicating with others facing the difficulties in dealing with the communication technology. The goal of this paper is to design a communication system that is used to facilitate communication between blind, deaf/dumb and normal people using machine learning techniques. SVBiCommunication system helps blind person to hear voice through speaker, saying the word gestured by the deaf/dumb while the deaf will receive text that can be seen on LCD, representing the word said by the blind. SVBiCommunication works in two main directions, the first direction is processing the input from image to speech and also to text. The animated word gestures that are taken from the image are mapped with predefined language knowledge base into text. Then, the relevant audio is generated. The second direction is processing from speech to text. The voice from blind is converted into its corresponding text using ARM-Voice Recognition application.
