Abstract

There are children, youngsters and adults in Bolivia who have hearing impairment caused by deficiencies, which generate disadvantageous situations and limiting the performance of social communication. The person with the hearing impaired ­deaf­ is torced to use an alternative visual­gestural communication system as first language, called Bolivian Sign Language (LSB). A set of sensors of flexion; acceleration and gyro are located in appropriate anatomic positions accompanied with other electronic components that make up the electronic system that is intended to provide digital equivalent information to different hand movements. The electronic system, with a graphical user interface designed specifically for it, does the work of translating the LSB to oral language in order to the deaf person can be able to establish communication with the whole social environment that ignores the use of this alternative communication system, LSB
