Dubbing of Videos for Deaf People - A Sign Language Approach

Deaf people have their own language and they use the sign language to communicate. Movies are synchronized into a lot of different languages so that almost everyone is able to understand it, but sign language is always missing. This project makes a first step to close the gap by developing a "how to produce sign language based synchronization" guide for movies and a video player, which plays and shows two different movies at once. Methodical steps include modelling of sign language movie, conversion between spoken language, noise, music and sign language, development of a video player, system architecture for the distribution of the sign language movie and qualitative and quantitative examination of the approaches with an expert group.
