A team at Cornell University has developed SpellRing, an AI-powered ring designed to translate American Sign Language (ASL) into text in real-time.
SpellRing uses micro-sonars to track hand movements and gestures.
The ring can be used to input text into computers or smartphones.
It features a microphone and speaker, eliminating the need for separate audio devices.
Components are combined in a 3D-printed design.
Accuracy ranges from 82% to 92%, depending on the sign.
The system recognizes the 26 letters of the alphabet.
SpellRing aims to bridge communication gaps for the deaf and hard-of-hearing community by providing a convenient and accurate translation tool.
