In this paper, we describe a software module for the animation of a virtual interpreter that translates from Italian to the Italian Sign Language (LIS). The system we describe takes a ”synthetic” approach to the generation of the sign language, by composing and parametrizing pre-captured and hand-animated signs, to adapt them to the context in which they occur.

Abstract

In this paper, we describe a software module for the animation of a virtual interpreter that translates from Italian to the Italian Sign Language (LIS). The system we describe takes a ”synthetic” approach to the generation of the sign language, by composing and parametrizing pre-captured and hand-animated signs, to adapt them to the context in which they occur.
