Summary:Inability to speak or to talk is called muteness or mutism; often caused by speech disorder, loss of hearing or in some cases, surgery. The families of these people suffering from such disease often learn sign languages like American Sign Language (ASL) to communicate, but if a mute person meets someone who doesn’t know ASL then there will be a communication barrier between them. So, to overcome this communication barrier we require a system through which a mute person can communicate with everyone, hence breaking down a speech barrier. In this regard, we proposed a system based on image processing to identify the sign and perform some common speech patterns using the speaker.
