Swedish students develop concept to help you understand sign language without understanding signing

Students from Berghs School of Communication in Stockholm, Sweden want to help the deaf and the mute communicate with those around them better with a concept app and device. The concept imagines an app called Google Gesture to help translate sign language in real-time. The app will work with two arm bands that will be placed near the middle of the forearms. A process called electromyography will used to analyze the movements of the person signing. The signs will be interpreted by Google Gesture from a tablet or smartphone and speak this to the listener.
