Abstract

Deaf and mute individuals face significant barriers when communicating with hearing individuals due to the language divide between sign language and spoken language. Traditional methods of communication, such as writing or lip-reading, can be slow, challenging, and prone to misunderstandings. Existing applications for communication primarily focus on one-way translation from spoken words to sign language, leaving deaf and mute individuals with limited options for expressing themselves in a way that is easily understood by hearing individuals. Thus, deaf and mute individuals often struggle to communicate with hearing people bidirectionally due to the lack of support for translation from sign language to spoken words and vice versa. This one-sided approach can lead to feelings of isolation and hinder the ability of deaf and mute individuals to fully participate in social, educational, and professional settings. However, technological advancements have made it possible to bridge the gap between these communities, fostering understanding and inclusivity. The Gest2Talk (G2T) application addresses these issues by providing a cutting-edge platform that allows seamless communication through text and sign language translations. This application aims to bridge this communication gap by providing an innovative platform to translate communication between sign language and spoken words. This groundbreaking app leverages modern technology to facilitate barrier-free communication, fostering inclusivity and deep connections between mute, deaf and normal individuals. G2T offers features not present in existing applications by providing a two-way translation function, from sign language to spoken words and vice versa. This offers a more comprehensive and inclusive communication experience. G2T is designed to be user-friendly for a wide range of people. It leverages the latest technology to ensure accurate and fast translation, making it a practical tool for everyday communication situations. The uniqueness of this application lies in its ability to connect two distinct language worlds, opening up more inclusive communication opportunities. This practical and useful tool serves as a bridge for genuine connections and meaningful interactions, highlighting the transformative power of technology in shaping a more accessible and empathetic society. Communication between deaf and normal individuals often faces significant challenges due to linguistic barriers and lack of understanding. These challenges can lead to social isolation and limited interactions, hindering the formation of meaningful connections. However, technological advancements have made it possible to bridge the gap between these communities, fostering understanding and inclusivity. The Gest2Talk (G2T) application addresses these issues by providing a cutting-edge platform that allows seamless communication through text or sign language translations. This groundbreaking app leverages modern technology to facilitate barrier-free communication, fostering inclusivity and deep connections between deaf and normal individuals. By offering a user-friendly interface and tailored features, G2T aims to promote empathy and facilitate meaningful interactions regardless of hearing capacity. The G2T app revolutionizes communication by providing a channel for both deaf and normal individuals to engage effectively without the limitations of language barriers. For deaf users, G2T offers a platform to express themselves fully and participate in conversations with ease. Normal users benefit from the app’s ability to translate gestures into text, enabling seamless communication with deaf individuals and promoting mutual understanding. By facilitating real-time conversations and eliminating communication obstacles, the G2T app enhances accessibility and fosters connections that transcends hearing abilities, ultimately promoting empathy and inclusivity between these communities. The novelty and inventiveness of the G2T application lie in its ability to bridge the gap between normal individuals and those who are deaf, offering a user-friendly solution that eliminates the need for knowledge of sign language. By promoting the learning of sign language and facilitating communication through modern technology, G2T aims to prevent feelings of inferiority or inadequacy in the deaf community, fostering a more inclusive and supportive environment for all individuals. This practical and useful tool serves as a bridge for genuine connections and meaningful interactions, highlighting the transformative power of technology in shaping a more accessible and empathetic society.
