Apparatuses, methods and systems for a text-to-sign language translation platform
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A processor-implemented method for translating information, comprising:
- receiving a textual speech input element;
translating the textual speech input element using predefined selection modification criteria;
querying a moving image database for a moving image corresponding the translated textual speech input element;
selecting from the moving image database at least one sign language target image clip based on the translating of the textual speech input element, the at least one sign language target image clip exhibiting continuity promoting images including a figure with hands in a neutral position in opening and closing frames of the sign language target mage clip; and
outputting the at least one sign language target image clip to a display device.

Abstract
The present disclosure details apparatuses, methods, and systems for a text-to-sign language translation platform (“translation platform”). The translation platform enables efficient, real-time processing of written speech elements, such as may be supplied by a Closed Captioning feed, and conversion to sign language video clips that may be output to a video display, such as via an embedded “picture-in-picture” window. The translation platform is configurable to process homographs, synonyms, grammatical context, multiple speakers, tone of voice, and/or the like.

1. A processor-implemented method for translating information, comprising:
-
receiving a textual speech input element; translating the textual speech input element using predefined selection modification criteria; querying a moving image database for a moving image corresponding the translated textual speech input element; selecting from the moving image database at least one sign language target image clip based on the translating of the textual speech input element, the at least one sign language target image clip exhibiting continuity promoting images including a figure with hands in a neutral position in opening and closing frames of the sign language target mage clip; and outputting the at least one sign language target image clip to a display device. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A processor-implemented method for translating information, comprising:
-
receiving a textual speech input element; translating the textual speech input element using predefined selection modification criteria, the selection modification criteria including implementing a word-drop threshold when a timing discrepancy is identified, determining whether the word-drop threshold is reached, and dropping at least one word from the translating of the textual speech input element when the word-drop threshold is reached; querying a moving image database for a moving image corresponding the translated textual speech input element; selecting from the moving image database at least one sign language target image clip based on the translating of the textual speech input element; and outputting the at least one sign language target image clip to a display device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14)
