EnableTalk and the whole world will hear you!

Linda

A group of young Ukrainian students developed a tool able to convert sign language into written and spoken language.

They created gloves full of flexible sensors which send the information through a blue-tooth system to a software and this converts the language.

They won the first place at Microsoft’s Imagine Cup 2012.

I work in software development. I keep on writing from time to time People's Code to continue following some of my oldest passions: linguistics and language technologies. I'm Italian and I live in Luxembourg. Ah... the blog's name comes from my favorite definition of natural language: it is a shared code. It is not nice nor ugly, not simple nor difficult - we understand each other only because we share the same code and we (often) agree on it. Ehm ho un altro blog in Italiano, ChiappeInFuga, per sapere di cosa si tratta fate prima a darci un'occhiata se no l'about me non finisce più.
