SIGN LANGUAGE TRANSLATION
A method may include obtaining, at a system, audio during a communication session that includes a first device and a second device. In these and other embodiments, the audio may originate at the second device. The method may further include selecting, automatically and independently by the system based on one or more features of the communication session, a first translation process instead of a second translation process to translate between sign language and language data during the communication session. The method may also include using the selected one of the first translation process and the second translation process to generate a video that includes sign language content based on the audio.
1 . A method comprising:
obtaining, at a system, audio during a communication session that includes a first device and a second device, the audio originating at the second device;
selecting, automatically and independently by the system based on one or more features of the communication session, a first translation process instead of a second translation process to translate between sign language and language data during the communication session; and
using the selected one of the first translation process and the second translation process to generate a video that includes sign language content based on the audio.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more features of the communication session include content of the audio of the communication session.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more features of the communication session include a number associated with the second device.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the first translation process and the second translation process are further configured to generate second audio for directing to the second device based on a second video obtained from the first device that includes sign language content.
5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising after utilizing the selected one of the first translation process and the second translation process for a first portion of the communication session, selecting the other one of the first translation process and the second translation process to translate between sign language and language data for a second portion of the communication session.
6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the other one of the first translation process and the second translation process is selected based on changes to the audio in the communication session.
7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the changes to the audio include the audio including silence or music.
8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the changes to the audio include the audio including speech.
9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first translation process is fully automated, and the second translation process includes a third device configured to present video and audio to a user of the third device.
10 . At least one non-transitory computer-readable media configured to store one or more instructions that, in response to being executed by a system, cause or direct the system to perform the method of claim 1 .
11 . A system comprising:
one or more computer readable mediums including instructions;
one or more computing systems coupled to the one or more computer readable mediums and configured to execute the instructions to cause or direct the system to perform operations, the operations comprising:
obtaining, at a system, audio during a communication session that includes a first device and a second device, the audio originating at the second device;
selecting, automatically and independently by the system based on one or more features of the communication session, a first translation process instead of a second translation process to translate between sign language and language data during the communication session; and
using the selected one of the first translation process and the second translation process to generate a video that includes sign language content based on the audio.
12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more features of the communication session include content of the audio of the communication session.
13 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more features of the communication session include a number associated with the second device.
14 . The system of claim 11 , wherein each of the first translation process and the second translation process are further configured to generate second audio for directing to the second device based on a second video obtained from the first device that includes sign language content.
15 . The system of claim 14 , wherein the one or more features of the communication session include content of the audio of the communication session.
16 . The system of claim 11 , further comprising after utilizing the selected one of the first translation process and the second translation process for a first portion of the communication session, selecting the other one of the first translation process and the second translation process to translate between sign language and language data for a second portion of the communication session.
17 . The system of claim 16 , wherein the other one of the first translation process and the second translation process is selected based on changes to the audio in the communication session.
18 . The system of claim 17 , wherein the changes to the audio include the audio including silence or music.
19 . The system of claim 17 , wherein the changes to the audio include the audio including speech.
20 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the first translation process is fully automated, and the second translation process includes a third device configured to present video and audio to a user of the third device.
