Authors(4) :-C. Umarani, J. Naskath, M. Banu, J. Uhaya Shanthi

Today communication between deaf- mute and a normal person always have been a challenging task. Many researchers are focusing on communication between normal and deaf-mute person. To the best of our knowledge, little work has been done in this area. The main objective of this project is to present a system that can efficiently convert text to voice. In the deaf -mute communication interpreter is a device that translate the TEXT to auditory speech. For each text a signal is produced by the computer and send corresponding controller unit and it generate vibration signal. The deaf people are using this device by their mouth; hence they easily understand data given by the computer. The device can also be made to translate larger text. In addition, the system also includes a text to speech conversion (TTS) block which converts the matched gestures i.e. text to voice output, and also voice to voice output and also call making as output.
