WORLEY

Objective

Create an affordable educational tool for American Sign Language fingerspelling.

This project was completed as part of the 60th Georgia Governor's Honor Program (GHP) engineering discipline during the final 2 weeks. The team was composed of two programmers and myself.

Solution

The final hand is a simplified tendon-actuated robotic hand built for under $150. The fingers are 3D printed in polypropylene with compliant joints.

Control of the hand is managed by a RPi4 that uses a transformer to parse voice input into servo positions according to the ASL fingerpselling alphabet.
