AI ring helps translate sign language

The SpellRing was developed by Cornell researchers and uses AI plus micro-sonar tech to track real-time fingerspelling. Right now, it can be used to input text into computers and smartphones. It’s a neat, given that the researchers say alternatives have been too bulky and impractical for Deaf and hard-of-hearing communities.
There are caveats. This isn’t a consumer product yet and may never be. Plus, fingerspelling is only one aspect of American Sign Language. Still, you love to see people working on accessibility tech!
