PROJECT UPDATE:DECEMBER 2014Yicun Xiong # 03711052
The Story• I am very interested in video relay service (VRS) in USA, but China don't
have VRS because the technology isn't advanced in China. As technology progressed and the Internet developed in USA, companies began listening to the deaf community and embarked on the design and production of video relay phones.

My Solution• Every smart phone can support the interpret app and MYO for the
convenience of users. The app has two sensors. The first sensor can recognize sign language and translate it into text in the smart phone, which then converts the text to spoken words for hearing people. Second sensor could convert spoken words it into text in smart phone for deaf.

Strengths and Weakness• Strengths 1. Smart interpret and MYO without interpreter, it is very lightweight, and easy to carry.
2. A hardware component- the MYO fitted with various sensors and a software component which translates the hand signals into speech in real time, it is very lightweight, because the gloves was phased out.
3. The app design is very simplified.
4. The app has friendly user interface, interpretation functions, easy operation and easy to use.
Weakness 1. During the process, the app takes charge of controlling speaking with only the help of
audition without feeling and mood, because the feeling and mood were only from people.
2. Sign language is converted to text and spoken words by the MYO, but it cannot achieve higher level of deaf sign language, because the MYO translate the level to be limited if it use American Sign Language, there is a difference between American Sign Language and English Sing Language.
