CONSIGNOS
CONSIGNOS-AUTOMATIC SIGN LANGUAGE CONVERTER AND REPRODUCER is an experimental development project currently being undertaken within the framework of the Avanza Competitiveness R&D subprogram.
The objective of the CONSIGNOS project is to facilitate social inclusion for people with hearing loss. To fulfill this goal, innovative technologies will be used to automatically translate information into Spanish sign language. These technologies include voice recognition, translation into LSE and the generation of signs using an animated agent.
The project contemplates the development of an initial voice or text translation to LSE prototype. The project objectives are:
- To facilitate access to ICTs for people with hearing loss, including both simple access to content as well interaction with it.
- To enable people with hearing loss to communicate through the animated agent with all kinds of users without requiring a knowledge of special skills.
- To try and provide different communication options by researching the possibilities that the new product might offer.
