According to the WHO, around 40 million people across Africa suffer from hearing loss and deafness. Kenyan tech company Signvrse is developing a catalogue of Kenyan sign language signs and realistic motion translations using an AI technology they've developed called Terp360. The technology can be used for real-time sign language interpretations, for pre-recorded content such as advertiser content, and embedded translations in web pages.
