"SignWave: An easy-to-use program that transcribes text or audio files into a sign language animation."

"Given how much society has advanced technologically, the fact that there still isn't enough attention given to making communication more accessible for the deaf community is inexcusable. One of our teammates spoke of his first-hand experience with this issue, as his grandfather is a deaf individual who communicates primarily through sign language and visual cues. That's when we had the idea of automating translation to sign language, similar to closed captions on videos. As a result, we have created SignWave, an accessible and convenient translator from English to American Sign Language (ASL)."

Uses OpenAI's Whisper to convert speech to text.

Signapse is an AI sign language translator. Well, it's designed primarily for announcements in public spaces, though can also be used for websites and videos. The way the system works is, they find videos similar to your announcement video, then use generative AI to make a new video based on the most similar videos from their video library. The generative AI being employed is generative adversarial networks (GANs). The final videos made by the generative AI are based on Marcel and Mia, actual humans, and they promise to compensate them each time their image is used commercially.
