Spanish Sign Translator

This project uses Python and the OpenCV and MediaPipe libraries to detect and translate signs in real time into Spanish. The project is designed to recognise and translate American Sign Language (ASL) signs and is ideal for those interested in learning or communicating with people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
