AI enabled sign language recognition and VR space bidirectional communication using triboelectric smart glove
Open accessAbstract
Sign language recognition, especially the sentence recognition, is of great significance for lowering the communication barrier between the hearing/speech impaired and the non-signers. The general glove solutions, which are employed to detect motions of our dexterous hands, only achieve recognizing discrete single gestures (i.e., numbers, letters, or words) instead of sentences, far from satisfying the meet of the signers’ daily communication. Here, we propose an artificial intelligence enabled sign language recognition and communication system comprising sensing gloves, deep learning block, and virtual reality interface. Non-segmentation and segmentation assisted deep learning model achieves the recognition of 50 words and 20 sentences. Significantly, the segmentation approach splits entire sentence signals into word units. Then the deep learning model recognizes all word elements and reversely reconstructs and recognizes sentences. Furthermore, new/never-seen sentences created by new-order word elements recombination can be recognized with an average correct rate of 86.67%. Finally, the sign language recognition results are projected into virtual space and translated into text and audio, allowing the remote and bidirectional communication between signers and non-signers.
Overview

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
The paper presents an AI-enabled sign language recognition and communication system using a 15-channel triboelectric smart glove, deep learning, and a VR interface. It recognizes 50 words and 20 sentences, and with segmentation can reconstruct sentences and recognize new/never-seen sentences at an average correct rate of 86.67%.
Key findings
- Nonsegmentation CNN achieved 91.3% accuracy for 50 words and 95% for sentences; the abstract/discussion report 20 sentences, while Results and Fig. 3j describe 17 sentences.
- Segmentation with a hierarchy classifier achieved 82.81% accuracy for word fragments and 85.58% average correct rate for sentence reconstruction; the single classifier achieved 81.9% and 79.41%, respectively.
- New/never-seen sentences created by recombining learned word units in new orders were recognized at 86.67% average correct rate with the hierarchy classifier, versus 60% with the single classifier.
- The glove uses 15 triboelectric sensors; hand motion accounts for 43% of sign language motions, with finger bending (56%), wrist motion (18%), fingertip touch (16%), and palm interaction (10%) among hand motions.
- The VR interface enables bidirectional communication: sign language is translated into text/audio and sent via TCP/IP to a nonsigner, who can type responses; a greeting conversation between avatars Lily and Mary is demonstrated.
Methods
- Triboelectric sensors were fabricated from Ecoflex and wrinkled nitrile with conductive textile electrodes, encapsulated, and stitched/glued onto a cotton glove; 15 sensors were placed on fingers, wrists, right index/middle fingertips, and left palm.
- For nonsegmentation, 100 samples per word and sentence were collected, with 80% training and 20% testing, yielding 5000 word samples and 2000 sentence samples. For segmentation, 50 samples per sentence for 17 sentences (850 total) were split with a 200-point sliding window at 50-point steps, producing 13 elements per 800-point sentence; 60%/20%/20% were used for training/validation/testing, and 5 samples for 3 new sentences tested new-sentence recognition.
- Main analysis used an optimized 1D CNN (5 kernels, 64 filters, 4 convolutional layers), PCA and t-SNE for visualization, single and hierarchy classifiers for segmentation, and a Unity VR interface with TCP/IP client–server communication.
Limitations
- No dedicated Limitations section is present. The paper states that the nonsegmentation method cannot distinguish new/never-seen sentences even when they contain the same word elements in a different order, and it introduces recognition time latency; the segmentation method has compromised recognition accuracy.
- The paper states the demonstration is limited to 50 words and 20 sentences from an American Sign Language phrase book and says the database can be broadened; new-sentence recognition reaches 86.67%, not perfect, and the single classifier is lower at 60%.
- Evident from the text: the VR communication demonstration is a greeting scenario between two avatars under an identical LAN, so broader real-world deployment and larger user populations are not tested in the paper.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
