| Research Abstract |
This study proposes a new description method with a focus on the linguistic structure of sign language.For the purpose of the communication support of the healthcare scene, we have compiled and collected 911 medical sign language words that are more easily understandable and are in wider usage.Three-dimensional motions for these 911 words were acquired through an optical motion capture system, and created the database that was experimentally developed. We created explanatory text using sign language for confusing medical terms. We developed a three-dimensional movement analysis tool and started the work of the morpheme analysis of the medical sign language word.
