Published: 9 June 2011 y., Thursday

During the exibition „Technology Open House 2011“ japanese creators of technologies presented the automatic system, which can translate words into the finger language.

This system can automatically find gestures equivalent for words. Then gestures are shown by the virtual character. It is sad to say, but the translation can be not accurate, but if a system makes a mistake, person can improve it. System remembers right information and uses it later.

There is intense to use virtual finger language translators for quick translation of the TV news. For example if there are no specialist who would do it instead. A lot of news were prepared by the special form, so there will be no big difficulties for system to translate needed information.
