Language is an essential part of communication in every society, but nowadays, many people have difficulties for perceiving and pronouncing the characteristic sounds of common language. The sign language was designed for these people. This language can be characterized by applying technological advancements of today. The objective of this work is to present the design of a prototype that allows processing the resistive changes that the sensor system submits when implemented in a microcontroller Arduino Lilypad. For developing this project, the first step was to study the behavior of each component and to design a glove that supports the components. Then a graphic interface in Matlab was desgined. It will characterize and visualize the movements associated to the to the alphabetic characters of the sign language. Finally, a WiFi transmission system was desgined along with a mobile phone application.
