| Research Abstract |
This research developed a prototype system which is not only lip reading in real time, but useful for communication support, for hearing-impaired person. We carried out the recognition experiments to 50 Japanese conversation phrases with four subjects during more than five weeks. As the result, we obtained 94% of the average recognition rate, and we indicated the high practicality of the development system.
