People who are hard of hearing use Sign Language (SL)., sometimes referred to as gesture-based language, to communicate with each other. For those who are not familiar with SL, interpreters are necessary, but they are not always accessible. Consequently, in order to convert the text into SL, an English text-to-Indian Sign Language (ISL) translation system is implemented in this article. The system accepts english text or voice in english language as input and produces a video of Indian Sign Langauge as output. It serves as a tool for human-computer interaction and does away with the requirement for an ISL human interpreter when interacting with the hard of hearing. The system has a large collection of frequently used sentences and English terms. It highlights the value of cultural sensitivity in the development and application of assistive technology in addition to showcasing technological competence.
