Gesture Vocalizer Using Arduino
Abstract: Science and technology have been an indispensable part of our lives, driving innovation and transforming the way we communicate. Communication barriers between the hearing-impaired and the hearing population pose significant challenges in daily interactions. Sign language, a primary mode of communication for the deaf and mute communities, is not universally understood by the general public. This research work presents a novel system for real-time sign language to speech conversion, aiming …

Sign Language and Face Expression Recognition Using Neural Networks: Deep Learning Approach to Break Communication Barriers
Abstract: Our study proposes a multimodal gesture recognition system specifically designed to aid communication for the deaf community. By employing neural network concepts, we utilize 3D convolutional neural networks (3D CNNs) to extract features from both hand and face images, focusing on relevant regions. Preprocessing techniques are applied to isolate these areas of interest prior to feature extraction. Unique 3D CNN architectures are then trained for each modality to capture the …

The Role of Color in Influencing Consumers
Abstract: Marketers have long used color's ability to attract customers' attention. Products with attractive packaging will definitely attract the attention of customers and differentiate themselves from other products on the shelf. Many studies have shown that color dulling can occur when the representation of color relationships is not consistent. Thus, the purpose of this study is to comprehend how color influences consumers. In order to find out the participants' preferred colors, …

Sign Talk for Blind and Deaf Translating Hand Gestures into Audible and Textual Communication
Abstract: Sign language serves as a vital communication method for individuals who are deaf or have hearing impairments. It relies on hand gestures, facial cues, and body language to convey messages and express meaning. However, many people who do not know sign language find it hard to communicate with sign language users. The latest progress in artificial intelligence and computing has enabled the creation of systems that can automatically recognize sign …

A Study on Insect Journey using Sensor
Abstract: The orthodox entomologist’s toolkit – the net, the vial, the killing jar – has long rendered its subject’s mute. We have cataloged insects by their form, their pinned and static beauty, but have been largely deaf to the living, breathing reality of their existence. This study proposes a paradigm shift: to listen. By deploying a suite of miniaturized, non-invasive sensors – from accelerometers that trace the micro-vibrations of a beetle’s …
