Huawei (https://www.huawei.com/us/) has launched StorySign, an app that uses the company's AI technology to translate children's books into sign language page by page, in Europe to help deaf children learn to read. Created in conjunction with experts and charities from the deaf community including the European Union of the Deaf and the British Deaf Association, StorySign contains two features that optimize the reading experience for deaf children: image recognition and optical character recognition. Image recognition allows children to position the phone at an angle from the book and the app will still recognize the words perfectly, while optical character recognition allows the app to function with greater accuracy. The AI performance will also power the speed at which pages from the book load in the app, so children won't be left waiting too long to find out what happens next in the story. The app currently showcases the popular children's book Where's Spot? by Eric Hill. StorySign can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store and the Huawei AppGallery in 10 European countries.
