V Vijayaganth, Santhosh Kumar S, Davis L, Pranava Darisan S V · 2023
Clerc's system is a modern smart language interpreter using advanced methods like artificial intelligence, imagery recognition, and natural languages translation. The Clergs System includes these are just some of tools used. The system is able to do this by turning gestures in sign language into verbal and written outputs smoothly thus helping people with hearing impairment to communicate easily in real time. In this research, an object recognition SSD MobileNets and FDN feature extraction models are used for accurate gesture detection. A machine-learning model can also be used to predict accurate translations. The efficacy of the Clerc system has been tested and validated to the utmost extent in different settings such as public places, schools, hospitals amongst others. This research seeks to explore possibilities of improving the system's precision, efficacy, scalability, and use with regards to the practical application.
