Inability to speak or to talk is called muteness ormutism; often caused by speech disorder, loss of hearing or insome cases, surgery. The families of these people suffering fromsuch disease often learn sign languages like American SignLanguage (ASL) to communicate, but if a mute person meetssomeone who doesn’t know ASL then there will be acommunication barrier between them. So, to overcome thiscommunication barrier we require a system through which amute person can communicate with everyone, hence breakingdown a speech barrier. In this regard, we proposed a systembased on image processing to identify the sign and perform somecommon speech patterns using the speaker.
