Abstract
The deaf face far more difficulties than normal people in day-to-day life, and sign language acts as the most important communication tool for them. Though a lot of books are available as a learning resource for this language, it's not common amongst a major section of the Indian population. An important area of concern is when they need to seek healthcare facilities. The doctors and other hospital staff struggle to understand their issues, and they themselves also put in much effort and time to communicate it to the doctors. Irrespective of joint efforts put in by both the communities, they are unable to get proper health benefits and the services of world-class doctors. In order to solve this problem, SISD, which is a smart interactive system for differently abled persons, based on Indian Sign Language has been proposed. It works similarly to the interactive voice response (IVR) system. SISD provides the user with choices (animations/videos of signs) and recognizes the user's choice via a sign language recognition system.
