SkillBox - Ecuador

SkillBox main objective is to include the hearing impaired children to a regular educational environment by translating spoken language to sign language.
The architecture that we used is modular, giving us the possibility to insert SkillBox in to mobile devices such as Windows Phone, tablets, slates and also in the near future, we want to integrate it into television, cinemas, and more. SkillBox runs in a small PC like Classmate PC and the user only needs a headset and the PC running Windows 7 with speech recognition. With this small requirements SkillBox is accessible for almost any user that has the option to buy a low cost computer, and in the researches that we made, we found that in our region most hearing impaired people have limited economic resources, or live in rural areas, so SkillBox helps them to have better access to education.
