Abstract

In order to develop a system which is versatile there is a need to achieve a dual channel communication, i.e. from deaf to hearing and vice-versa. Basically, Sign Language Recognition System is a system which helps the stakeholders, i.e. the deaf and the dumb persons and those with normal senses to communicate with each others quickly and efficiently without a need of conventional interpreters. In this review, the authors have tried to study the works, which have been carried out over the years and tried to present the insight gained along with the identified research gap.
