They felt modern technologies could offer a solution to help bridge that gap, especially for situations where there continues to be a lack of support for the Deaf community. Researchers at the University of Antwerp are building a robot that translates speech into sign language. The project was conceived by three masters students who identified a shortage of sign language translators, particularly for the Flemish sign language. By partnering with 3D printing company 3D Hubs to provide parts for the robot, the researchers will enable manufacturing to be scaled efficiently. Sign Language Translator A team from the University of Antwerp, led by Professor Jan van den Brink, has developed an autonomous translation system based on machine learning and artificial intelligence.
