Abstract:
"Sri Lankan Sign Language (SSL) is the deaf community's primary mode of communication in Sri Lanka. This research investigates the use of voice recognition and a system to translate Sinhala speech to Sri Lankan Sign Language. A few procedures as part of the project, is carried out. First, interviews with specialists were held in order to have a better understanding of the topic. Second, based on a study of the Literature review. it is identified if any comparable or existing work has previously been done. The third step is the development of a prototype. This system accepts audio as input, then translates the audio recorded message into text, and then displays the prepared Sri Lankan Sign Language images. So with this system, the communication between ordinary and hearing impaired
persons gets easier."
