  • 內容： A sign is something that suggests the presence of a fact,condition, or quality.Signs are everywhere in our lives.They make our lives easier when we are familiar with them.But sometimes they pose problems. For example, a tourist might not be able to understand signs in a foreign
    country.

    This paper discusses problems of automatic sign recognition and translation. We present a system capable of capturing images, detecting and recognizing signs, and translating them into a target language. We describe methods for automatic sign extraction and translation. We use a user-centered approach in system development.The approach takes advantage of human intelligence if needed and leverage human capabilities. We are currently working on Chinese sign translation. We have developed a prototype system that can recognize Chinese sign input from a video camera that is a common gadget for a tourist, and translate the signs into English or voice stream. The sign translation,in conjunction with spoken language translation, can help international tourists to overcome language barriers. The technology can also help a visually handicapped person to increase environmental awareness.
