Google DeepMind has recently announced SignGemma, a new AI model designed to translate sign language into spoken text, set to join the Gemma model family later this year.

SignGemma aims to enhance accessibility and foster inclusive technology.

This model is designed to translate various sign languages into spoken text, with its best performance and primary testing focused on American Sign Language (ASL) and English.

SignGemma, trained on a vast dataset, promises to enhance accessibility for the global Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities.

Google DeepMind is keen to collaborate with developers, researchers, and the worldwide Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities to maximize SignGemma’s impact. Your unique insights and experiences are key to refining this technology.
