Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: In manual-cued speech (MCS) a speaker produces hand gestures to resolve ambiguities among speech elements that are often confused by speechreaders. The shape of the hand distinguishes among consonants; the position of the hand relative to the face distinguishes among vols. Experienced receivers of MCS achieve nearly perfect reception of everyday connected speech. MCS has been taught to very young deaf children and greatly facilitates language learning, communication, and general education. This manuscript describes a system that can produce a form of cued speech automatically in real time and reports on its evaluation by trained receivers of MCS. Cues are derived by a hidden markov models (HMM)-based speaker-dependent phonetic speech recognizer that uses context-dependent phone models and are presented visually by superimposing animated handshapes on the face of the talker. The benefit provided by these cues strongly depends on articulation of hand movements and on precise synchronization of the actions of the hands and the face, Using the system reported here, experienced cue receivers can recognize roughly two-thirds of the keywords in cued low-context sentences correctly, compared to roughly one-third by speechreading alone (SA). The practical significance of these improvements is to support fairly normal rates of reception of conversational speech, a task that is often difficult via SA.
