Diseño y construcción de un traductor de lenguaje de señas, para facilitar la comunicación entre personas mediante una computadora y una mano robótica.

Abstract

The inclusion of deaf mute people is a necessity that is present in the different public and private institutions of Ecuador, for this reason this degree project presents an alternative to solve this problem efficiently and effectively. The solution presented is a portable device that allows the translation of text into sign language by means of a robotic arm that will allow the interaction of customer service personnel with deaf people, reaching a 99% level of understanding between the issuer and the receiver. The equipment works by means of a robotic hand that is responsible for transmitting the message, previously written on the computer, by means of real-time signs. It is concluded that the prototype implemented of a robotic hand that allows to translate words into signs, is a viable, economical and good solution to start having inclusion practices with deaf people - in regular public and private customer service centers.
