TITLE OF THE PROJECT: ( WALA PA)

TUNGKOL SAAN ANG GAGAWIN NATIN?

We are planning to make a device that can help the mute or deaf people to lessen their
struggles when it comes to communicating to other people since not all of us can do the sign
language. I already asked our teacher if our topic is still related to media and information and she
said yes and it is just up to us on how we are going to find a solution to our problem.

EXAMPLE PIC OF OUR PROTOTYPE:

As you can see, it is like a small tablet. Just analyze the picture and you will understand
the purpose of it. We will be using that picture as our prototype, we are just going to edit it in
ibispaint so it will not look like an ordinary pic since it should look like we created it using
digital art so that’s why I chose ibispaint as our editing app for this.

MGA PARTS NA GAGAWAN NATIN:

 ABSTRACT
- BACKGROUND ( Airra Medrano)
Ditoididiscuss kung anoangmakikitasaating prototype (binigaykonanamanyung pic
napagbabasehannatin), bakittayo nag come up sa prototype na yon kumbagaanoyung purpose
non. Paki elaborate na lang.
 - PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED (Christine Valdellon)
Yun nga since di lahatkayang mag sign language so paranganglaking struggle non samga
deaf or mute people. Ditoiexplainmonalangna struggle sa communication tapos since more on
technology nanamantayo, let’s grab the opportunity to make an idea or gadgets to help other
people to solve their struggle or problem which is ifocusmosamga deaf or mute people dahilitong
prototype na to ay for them. Paki elaborate na lang.

- OBJECTIVES (Monica Grace and NikiDimaano)

Mga purpose nito, 3-5 objectives. Ayoslangnaman kung lalampas.

 DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT (RonalynLasic)

- FEATURES

 PROJECT ILLUSTRATION (Amor Aranda)

Mobile technology is very fast growing and incredible, yet there are not much technology development
and improvement for Deaf-mute peoples. Existing mobile applications use sign language as the only
option for communication with them. Before our article, no such application (app) that uses the
disrupted speech of Deaf-mutes for the purpose of social connectivity exists in the mobile market. The
proposed application, named as (TITLE) uses automatic speech recognition (ASR) methodology to
recognize the speech of Deaf-mute and convert it into a recognizable form of speech for a normal
person. The based features are extracted for each training and testing sample of Deaf-mute speech. The
SIGN TO SPEECH is used to understand your command and convert it into speech. The SPEECH TO TEXT
is used for the process of speech recognition. It is like Siri when the person speaks, it will convert as a
text. The application is also integrated with a 3D avatar for providing visualization support, the
VISUALIZER. The avatar is responsible for performing the sign language on behalf of a person with no
awareness of Deaf-mute culture.

Deaf people face many irritations and frustrations that limit their ability to do everyday tasks. Research
indicated that Deaf people, especially Deaf children, have high rates of behavioral and emotional issues
in relation to different methods of communication. Most people with such disabilities become introverts
and resist social connectivity and face-to-face socialization. The inability to speak with family and friends
can cause low self-esteem and may result in social isolation of Deaf person.

This prototype can be a big help of every deaf person in their daily lives. It may improve their
communication in better way. We suggest that the proposed mobile application can act as a voice for
them and they can socialize with friends and family by using this app.
