A Sensory Glove With a Limited Number of Sensors for Recognition of the Finger Alphabet of Polish Sign Language and with voice

Abstract: This research presents a novel sensory glove designed for recognizing the finger alphabet of Polish Sign Language (PSL) using a minimal number of sensors while maintaining high classification accuracy. Traditional data glove designs typically incorporate multiple sensors across all fingers, prioritizing recognition accuracy at the expense of ergonomics, affordability, and practical usability.

Hand gesture is one of the method used in sign language for non-verbal communication. It is most commonly used by deaf & dumb people who have hearing or speech problems to communicate among themselves or with normal people. Various sign language systems has been developed by many makers around the world but they are neither flexible nor cost-effective for the end users
