According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention is a system combines flex sensors and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to the ESP32 microcontroller to record and process the hand movements. An algorithm based on rules works effectively with the sensor data with a low power usage and fast response time. The new feature is the integration of light weight hardware design and multi language text-to-speech features, which will be provided by integrating Bluetooth-enabled smartphones. There are experimental findings that prove correct gesture recognition with real-time speech conversion. The system is able to distinguish specific hand gestures and put them across into verbal communication."
