Indonesian Sign Language Interpreter Device Based on ATMega328 Microcontroller for Bali Deaf Community Denpasar

Abstract

This study aims to design and build a Sign Language Interpreter Device with Voice Output in the form of an ATMega328 Microcontroller-Based Voice Speaker Module so that in its implementation and later in designing this device the writer focuses on the translation of 16 words that have been predetermined in Indonesian Sign Language especially in Denpasar City by using a Flex Sensor and a Gyro Sensor based on the ATMega328 Microcontroller with Arduino IDE programming. This device is also equipped with a 4GB SD card memory for storing voice recordings, using an ATMega328 microcontroller, four analog Flex sensors, a Gyro sensor, a buzzer and an 8 ohm speaker, and using a 7.4 volt Li-Po battery. The application of this device is aimed for thehearing impaired people who fall into the adult category who can understand writing and understand sign language. The output of this device uses an MP3 player module that is already included in the Sign Language Interpreter Device. The flex sensor readings range from 998-1005 ADC (analog digital converter) in open conditions and the sensor ranges from 1006-10018 ADC in closed conditions. The reading for the gyro pitch (Y axis) ranges from -10º to 76º then on the reading of the gyro Roll (X axis) ranges from -100º to 90º.
