Code-Language-Detector

A glove that recognizes hand gestures and outputs the code language.

Problem Statement

• Around 500,000 people in the US and Canada alone use Sign Language.
• But unfortunately, there is not much awareness about the language and most people are unable to comprehend sign language, let alone reply back in the same.
• Communication is an integral part of survival. Thus, we believe that we must equip people with the right tools to do so.

Our Solution

• We have made a glove using the hardware listed in the below section and used the readings of the finger movements to map to the appropriate sign language character.
• At the moment, the scope of our project is limited to: ASL Digits and Numbers.

Requirements

• Arduino IDE
• Arduino Nano R3
• HC-05 Bluetooth Module
• SpectraSymbol Bend Sensor
• Adafruit Analog Accelerometer: ADXL335
• Resistor

Installation

• Use the following command to clone the repository onto your system.

  git clone https://github.com/Namslay26/Code-Language-Detector.git

• To run your installation,
• • Connect to the necessary hardware,
  • Open the code through Arduino IDE,
  • Compile and run the code.
  • Check Serial Monitor for the results.
