One of the earliest written records of a sign language is from the fifth century BC, in Plato’s Cratylus, where Socrates says: “If we hadn’t a voice or a tongue, and wanted to express things to one another, wouldn’t we try to make signs by moving our hands, head, and the rest of our body, just as dumb people do at present?”[Source: Wikipedia]. Technology is far more developed(advanced) than time then. Now, we can detect what the deaf and mute person is saying just by recording the same and comparing it with predefined datasets, revealing what the individual is trying to accomplish. In this paper, we have proposed a solution by which we can help disabled people, people who are Deaf, Dumb, or Blind by providing them a new technological eye, ear, and brain. Machine learning algorithms are used for object detection to provide the eye for the blind. Speech to text conversion to aid the deaf and text to speech conversion to aid the dumb while communicating. The amalgamation of all these technologies with IOT technologies will help resolve the issues related to these differently abled people.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
