SignTheta - Two way Sign Language Translation

A web based application which accepts Audio/ Voice as input and converts it to corresponding Sign Language for Deaf people. The interface works in two phases,

• First, recognizes speech and converts it to text using JavaScript Web Speech API
• Secondly, uses Machine based translation to translate English into ISL based grammar. Semi-structured parse tree of English text is modified to represent parse tree of ISL based on bi-linguistic rules.
