Research Abstract |
Cellular digital phone and computer technologies are coming closer together as manufacturers work to combine the mobile phone and computer within a single and portable package. By using a mobile digital phone and a PC with a small video camera, communications among the hearing impaired is made possible. Live video clips of sign language and finger spelling allows hearing impaired persons to communicate interactively by viewing these video clips, no matter where they are or where they go.
