Part 7: Building the prototype recognition system with full capability.
Work Accomplished:
The pilot phase work has been completed. We have the following satisfactory outcomes after the completion of the pilot phase-
1. Launch of the project website and set up of new laboratory.
2. Around 100 gestures have been recognized in a vision-based setup.
3. Developed some novel gesture recognition algorithms and we are getting desired accuracy by the proposed pattern recognition algorithms.
4. Development of an extensive sign language database and different alphabets, numbers and words have been interpreted by skillful interpreters/experts.
5. We are now able to access different interpreting clips against appropriate alphabets, numbers and words from the database.
6. Different signs have been animated to get three dimensional views of signs.
7. An online dictionary of signs has been prepared to provide textual representations of signs.
