trAnSLator: An Intelligent Gesture-Based IoT Communication Engine for the Deaf and Mute

trAnSLator is an intelligent communication system designed to facilitate natural interaction for individuals who are deaf or mute. It interprets sign language gestures into real-time, coherent spoken sentences, enabling users to engage in everyday conversations and even conduct phone calls using sign language. The system processes time-series gesture data through feature extraction and dynamic time warping algorithms, and assembles recognized gestures into meaningful sentences using a conversational bot framework. Built using a MYO armband, which captures electromyographic and inertial signals and integrated with an Android application, trAnSLator supports personalized gesture learning and incorporates contextual awareness to improve communication accuracy and fluency.
