I SAW THE SIGN (AND I HEARD IT TOO)
Developed by Jose Hernandez-Rebollar, a researcher at the George Washington University, the Accele-Glove can translate American Sign Language gestures into spoken words or text, allowing the deaf to communicate more easily with the sign-language illiterate.
Users wear the electron, which is outfitted with micro-sensors, on one hand. A micro-controller on the back of the glove maps the position and movement of the hand and fingers, then broadcasts each word through a speaker or sends text to a computer screen. And, viola! The deaf and non-deaf are chatting.
To All;
The audio-visual material being prepared by the Church in the future is scheduled to be distributed on DVDs. We are currently preparing 2005 curriculum material in ASL for the DVD format.
We in the Special Curriculum, Members with Disabilities, of the Curriculum Department need to consider your comments and concerns about the use of DVDs for the Sign Language (ASL) material that in the past has been on video tapes. The use of DVDs will be much more compact and easier to handle. DVD format allows direct access to the recorded files opposed to searching a video tape for a file.
Another issue is the closed captioning and subtitling for the DVDs. We have begun to place SUBTITLE only on the DVDs. Will this be a problem? This will allow all coutries which speak/read English to be able to use the same DVD.
We hope in the future that General Conference, ASL interpretation, will be available on DVD. It is currently available on high speed Internet (www.lds.org).
Thank you for your response and please email your comments, concerns, and
suggestions to:

Subject: Deaf temple session at the Seattle WA temple
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I have talked to the temple Presidency and we have agreed to have the 2nd DEAF
session on the 2nd Sat at 1:30 in the afternoon. It is not on the temple schedule,
but it will be for 2005. But we will begin when the temple opens up the Aug.
So if you can come the 2nd Sat. in Aug, we will begin to have that 2nd session
for those that can't come on the 4th Friday. WE will still have the session
on the 4th Fri. for those that want to come to that session at 7:30 p.m..
Love you
Brother Albert Blanchard (Deaf Coordinator at the Temple)
PS You can still come any time. Just let the temple know and I will be there.
