This project aims towards the empowerment of the deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) in social communication by providing them a software tool to learn how to speak. As the DHH will closely monitor and mimic other’s facial expressions on the software, they will also explore how tongue placement is used to create the correct sounding words. The software application uses simple technologies and can be used in computers or mobile phones with the help of embedded cameras and microphones. Hence it is portable and easily deployable with everyday gadgets, i.e., laptops, mobile phones, and so on. The application also comes in handy for the DHH to develop better communication skills by providing a flexible learning environment.
