The interpreted gestures are then sent to a microcontroller (3) for execution. Recognized gestures are displayed on an LCD module (4) as text and simultaneously spoken aloud through a mini speaker (5), ensuring accessibility in both visual and auditory forms. The system also integrates Bluetooth (6) connectivity, allowing gesture data to be transmitted to a smartphone application for extended usability. A stable 5V regulated power supply (7) ensures consistent performance across all components. Its real-time operation makes communication more natural and inclusive, offering significant applications in healthcare, education, public places, home communication, and workplace assistance."
