In Indian Population there is about 1 percent of the people are deaf and dumb. Deaf and dumb people use gestures to interact with each other. Ordinary humans fail to grasp the significance of gestures, which makes interaction between deaf and mute people hard. In attempt for ordinary citizens to understand the signs, an automated sign language identification system is proposed. A smart wearable hand device is designed by attaching different sensors to the gloves to perform the gestures. Each gesture has unique sensor values and those values are collected as an excel data. The characteristics of movements are extracted and categorized with the aid of a convolutional neural network (CNN). The data from the test set is identified by the CNN according to the classification. The objective of this system is to bridge the interaction gap between people who are deaf or hard of hearing and the rest of society.
