A student from Ukraine has created a unique glove

The invention reads the sign language.

In Ternopil, a 19-year-old student of a technical College. I. pulyuya Tamara Waxed for protection of the degree project presented a practical design of a hand that says via smartphone.

“This glove vocalizes sign language. It connects to the phone via Bluetooth. When one shows a gesture with the glove data is sent to the phone. Smartphone with the installed program, processes the information and voiced the phrase,” the girl told reporters.

Each phrase has a sequence number, the phone these numbers and records in accordance with figures voiced particular phrase. Software on the phone Tamara also wrote herself. So you have been looking for a smartphone that could speak the Ukrainian language. The day before graduation got just that.

Last year student also did a similar glove. On the same principle it sounded pre-programmed gestures. First it was letters. The development of such a project was the limited time only one year. Programmed Tamara ten letters from which to form words. The first glove was designed for the deaf.

This year the project has changed somewhat. The glove focused on people who are temporarily unable to speak. Now everyone can independently program the gestures and phrases. And the glove came out smaller in size.

Today the invention of Tamara is just a prototype. Someone used it, we need investment. The girl did everything on my own, have invested their own funds. The price of a single sensor 700 hryvnia, and the need five. Tamara bought parts to build devices and connects them with a soldering iron. Thus, the cost of the sensors for only 15-20 USD. But they are not expendable. The Darts break.

“This project should be finalized. The glove can fully earn in six months, now about five thousand on the mechanisms, not counting our own costs,” says the graduate.

In the world there are already several such projects, two guys from Donetsk. The price is really high, from 300 to 500 dollars. Tamara met only thirty dollars.
