Abstract

The aim of this paper is to develop a system for bidirectional translation between Japanese and Japanese Sign Language (JSL) for assisting the hearing-impaired. This system can display the translated JSL into Japanese and Japanese into JSL by sign animation which a model avatar signs. Various displays, from small screens such as a mobile telephone to large ones of a projection type, are available to a sign animation. We have to find display condition which is hearing-impaired well understand sign animation. Experiments were carried out under 45 display conditions and hearing-impaired read sign animation on screen. Results show that sign can be read with correct answer rate 90%, when the size was over 10x8 cm and the resolution was 225x180 pixels.
