Thomas Pryor Discusses Early Prototype: SignAloud

$10,000 Lemelson-MIT "Use it!" Undergraduate Team Winner, Thomas Pryor and Navid Azodi from the University of Washington, developed an early prototype called SignAloud, a pair of gloves that transliterate American Sign Language into text and speech. Thomas explains where their invention started and the iteration process to an audience of high school inventors at EurekaFest 2016.

This is really good..They need to make something as well..To where if a non deaf person responds and a person wanting to talk back,the person can push a button on the gloves that activate a microphone that can put speech into subtitles or something..So the deaf person can communicate back to the response..so that it isnt just one sided..Talking to people but the other person not able to talk back to them..Otherwise it is sadly only one sided communication..

Not gonna work. Nice thought, but it's not just hand signs. It's more complicated than that.
