Abstract

Sign Language is the language of deaf. There are different types of sign languages spread all over the world. American Sign Language (ASL) is one of the sign languages. ASL is used by deaf Americans. We had created a system that translates sign language videos to simple sentence in English. This system is taking a lot of time for mapping the sign language videos to its corresponding sign writing images. This paper discusses an approach for minimizing the processing time taken for mapping the sign language videos to its corresponding sign writing images.
