Hand Gesture
Abstract- Hand gesture recognition plays a vital role in a technical and practical perspective. Here are some of
bridging communication gaps for individuals with hearing the key challenges such as Variability in Signs,
impairments. This abstract explores the application of Background Noise, Lighting Conditions, Complex Hand
computer vision and machine learning techniques to give
Poses etc [1]. Preventing the exploitation of
sign language gestures. By analyzing and classifying the
intricate movements of hand and finger configurations,
these systems facilitate real-time translation of sign
language into text or speech. The potential impact on
accessibility and inclusivity is substantial, empowering the
deaf and hard-of-hearing community to communicate
effortlessly with the broader society. This abstract
encapsulates the significance of hand gesture recognition in
breaking down linguistic barriers and fostering a more
inclusive world.
