TalkAble is an assistive device, whose main idea is to translate sign language into speech. The device is in the form of a portable hand glove on which the display along with controller board is installed. The right handed glove is made of fabric, with five sensor boards mounted on the back nail sections of each finger. A controller is programmed to convert the sign language into alphanumeric characters and to display it on a LCD. Further, the obtained text is converted into voice and is given out as the output.
