Good luck in your plan!
May I shamelessly advertise Mimix3D (iOS/Android)?! It's a technology we came up with to translate text/speech to ASL using avatars.
You can use it to learn ASL Signs since it has a dictionary of over 8000 words.
Beware, however, from what I've learnt, it's (Pidgin SE-ASL Signs-), which means that the grammar is not exactly ASL if you type full sentences, but rather a grammar between Signed Exact English & ASL.
Maybe someone else here can confirm...
Anyway, what you can certainly use it for is to learn the signs themselves.
Hope it helps :)
btw: we are still a humble startup, hopefully we'll continue to improve in the future! Wish us luck :D
May I suggest our avatar ASL dictionary app: Mimix3D (iOS, Android).
You can adjust the speed from the settings, and rotate the avatar a bit, and zoom in/out.
The dictionary is in the settings. Scrolling is a bit weird (you have to use 2 fingers to scroll XD)
Let me know if you try it out and what you think :)
Hope it helps.
Peace
edit: you can download the app and you'll have all the dictionary on your phone, no need to be online (except if you wanted to use (speech to Sign).
Hello there,
I can't answer your question but I was wondering whether there is any text available for the radio shows?
I'm only little familiar with NPR (great radio btw), so was wondering if by "readng the stories" you meant they also have the transcription of their shows?!
We have an application (ios/android] that translates text/speech to sign language using an animated avatar; that is why I ask, and might be able to help!
Thanks
Hey, we developed an app to translate text/speech to sign language using avatars. I would really appreciate your feedback since you learned it already!
I work with a startup that developed a technology to translate text/speech to sign language. People have been using the app to learn sign language as well. You might want to check it out (would appreciate your feedback as well)
Have you tried AVA? How accurate is it?
Also, you tried Mimix? I work with the 'startup' that made it and would appreciate any feedback :)
we have an app called mimix wherein we're trying to fulfill that end of the conversation...
Would you give me a feedback if it does help or has potential?
