Sign Language instant translation tool for all smart devices with camera

Instant translation tools for sign language according to The Daily Telegraph, Scottish researchers have recently announced that they are developing the world's first sign Language instant translation application. This application applies to all smart devices with cameras, including smartphones, tablets and laptops. Users simply record sign language gestures in front of the camera and the application can instantly translate it into text and display it on the screen. In addition, users can expand the concept and terminology of sign language and create their own vocabulary. Project leader Ernesto Compatangelo said the application would dramatically change the number of people who use English sign language, providing them with convenient translation services and addressing communication barriers. Developers say they hope to continue expanding the technology to meet the needs of more than 200 of the world's sign languages. The application is being developed by Technabling, a subsidiary of the University of Aberdeen, to improve job opportunities for deaf people. The application is expected to be launched in the second half of next year.
