Abstract
With a sign language computer interface, a user may perform one or more gestures in accordance with a recognized sign language, and have the gestures translated into information or instructions for use by one or more computers. Such interfaces may capture video imagery of a user performing gestures using one or more cameras, sense the gestures expressed in the video imagery, search a library for phrases corresponding to the gestures, and display one or more of the phrases to the user, who may indicate whether the phrases are consistent with his or her intended communication. The interfaces permit a user to communicate with computer-based systems the exclusive use of gestures, and without a single keystroke or mouse click.
