Abstract

Many researches were presented to help people with deafness and aphasia. This work tried to shorten the distance between existed researches and a usable or more realistic product. This work developed a system consists of a glove that converts Arabic sign language into visual Arabic alphabets and some essential words needed by the deaf person to communicate with others in an easy way. It includes a sensor that automatically measures SPO2 (blood oxygen level) and Heart Rate. The measurements would be shown in the mobile application by employing Bluetooth module over wireless communication if the deaf individual signed a word indicating that he was ill. It includes NFC (Near Field Communication) technology which help the deaf people to put their essential data like (LinkedIn, phone number, address, Facebook, Instagram) where NFC considered to be the gate for them to share their data easily without any problems. The proposed system will benefit deaf persons in the communication process and take the advantage of the wearable biosensors that will display the measurements of the SPO2, HR of the deaf person whenever he felt ill.
