It has two robotic hands along with arms which will work as a sign language interpreter. Sign language interpreter helps people to communicate with the people who are born deaf or have hearing loss. Over 5% of the world's population or 430 million people are facing hearing loss (432 million adults and 34 million children). It is estimated that by 2050 over 700 million people (one in every ten people) will have disabling hearing loss. So, it will be necessary to find ways to communicate with such people. Our sign language interpreter will be able to perform maximum 40-50 signs which includes words and greetings (i.e. hello, goodbye) on the basis of input given by mobile application. By this we can make communication between a normal person and a deaf person easier. For instance, a person wants to communicate with a person who can’t hear. And the person also don’t know the sign language. In that case, he/she can simply give its input to the mobile application and the robotic arm will communicate his/her message to the deaf by performing the sign language.
