Adrian's Quest to Simplify Sign Language Translation through AI

This week we talk with Adrian Pickering from Robotica. Robotica's main goal is to make all of the world's information and entertainment available in sign languages, starting with British Sign Language. Adrian explains the challenges of translating sign languages due to the chronic shortage of interpreters and translators. Robotica uses AI to create avatars that perform queued speech, a simpler form of sign language, to bridge the communication gap. They are also working on creating avatars for British Sign Language, using motion capture and AI to break down individual component parts for better understanding. The ultimate goal is to provide sign language translations for various aspects of life, such as public transport, healthcare, and utility bills, to empower sign language users and ensure inclusivity. Robotica aims to create deaf jobs, not take them, and make translations available everywhere through responsible and respectful AI.
