Hand Gesture Recognition to Audio Conversion using Raspberry pi and Open CV

Abstract:

          Sign language plays a major role in dump people communicating with normal people. It is very difficult for mute people to convey their message to normal people. Since normal people are not trained in hand sign language. In an emergency time conveying their message is very difficult. So the solution to this problem is to convert sign language into a human hearing voice. There are two major techniques available to detect hand motion or gesture such as vision and non-vision techniques and convert the detected information into voice through raspberry pi. In vision-based techniques, cameras will be used for gesture detection and non-vision-based technique sensors are used. Most mute people are also deaf. In an emergency situation, the message will automatically send to their relation or friends.

Introduction:

Sign language has become the most common method of communicating with those people who cannot speak. It is a language that uses hand motions to express the alphabet and words. People who are using sign language were recorded. The vision method has become the popular method used for sign recognition in the past decades. It is a system that uses a camera to sense the information that has been obtained through finger motions. It is the most commonly used visual-based method. It has been a tremendous effort and has been gone into the development of vision-based sign recognition systems worldwide. Vision-based gesture recognition systems can be divided into direct and indirect methods.  In earlier days for recognizing hand motion, a vision-based technique is used.

Existing system: 

  • It is not accurate in all directions Small variations are not determined
  • Sign language
  • The vision method has become the popular method used for sign recognition in the past decades

Hand Gesture Recognition to Audio Conversion using Raspberry pi and Open CV

Proposed system:

  • The dump people’s hand motion or gesture can be detected and then it will be converted into a human hearing voice signal.  
  • Hand gesture recognition using the camera 
  • Recognizing hand movement using the contour detection 
  • The detected sign is converted to audio for others  

Advantage 

  • Reduction in environmental effect
