Reasons for Deafness and Hearing Loss

For people who are mute or have trouble speaking, sign language, often known as hand speaking, has grown in popularity as a communication tool. Sign language is a language in which letters and words are expressed with hand gestures. Deaf and deaf-blind people have a difficult time understanding other people and their surroundings. Deaf people communicate with others through sign language in order to overcome their isolation. Those who are deaf-blind, on the other hand, are blind and rely on tactile sign language, which they interpret by touching the hands of others while making movements. People who are deaf or deaf-blind find it more difficult to interact with others in their community when they are unfamiliar with sign language or uncomfortable using the tactile form of it. Furthermore, as sign language is a form of communication with their surroundings, studying it is essential for deaf individuals as well as others who coexist with deaf individuals. The purpose of this robotic hand is to function as a communication tool for the deaf or deaf-blind individual using assistive technology. Furthermore, it can be a useful tool for deaf persons and those who wish to learn sign language to help with sign language instruction.
