Welcome
The language barrier, when trying to communicate with the Deaf can be frustrating for both parties but may have serious consequences in emergency situations, for example when a Deaf person must be notified about possible danger., This paper focuses on a system that will address the communication gap between the Deaf person and hearing persons under specific conditions, such as a visit to a pharmacist or doctor. A software product on a mobile device will be developed that could improve the health care services for Deaf patients. This medical information application will provide information on HIV/AIDS and hypertension. The information will be recorded and will then be translated into sign language using video footages that will be stored in a database. More so this system will help Deaf people to gain more knowledge about the illness.
