🔍 The Challenge of Communication

Individuals who are deaf and hard of hearing face significant challenges in everyday communication, education, and professional environments. Despite advancements in technology, there remains a lack of accessible and efficient communication tools that bridge the gap between deaf and hearing individuals.

🧩 The Communication Gap

One of the primary difficulties is the reliance on sign language, which, although effective, is not universally understood by the general population. This creates barriers in social interaction, accessing essential services, and participating in various aspects of public life. Moreover, individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing often experience isolation due to the communication gap, limiting their opportunities for growth and integration within society.

💡 Need for Innovation

Additionally, current assistive technologies, while helpful, tend to focus on either basic translation or specific contexts, leaving a gap in comprehensive, real-time communication solutions that can seamlessly connect individuals in various scenarios—whether in educational settings, healthcare, or day-to-day interactions.

🔧 Solving the Problem with AI

This project aims to address these challenges by leveraging Artificial Intelligence to facilitate smooth, real-time communication between deaf individuals and the hearing community. By bridging the communication divide, the project seeks to enhance accessibility, improve quality of life, and empower the deaf and hard of hearing community to fully participate in social, educational, and professional activities.
