Abstract: The Arabic Sign Language has endorsed outstanding research achievements for identifying gestures and hand signs using the deep learning methodology. The term "forms of communication" refers to the actions used by hearing-impaired people to communicate. These actions are difficult for ordinary people to comprehend. The recognition of Arabic Sign Language (ArSL) has become a difficult study subject due to variations in Arabic Sign Language (ArSL) from one territory to another and then within states. The Convolution Neural Network has been encapsulated in the proposed system which is based on the machine learning technique. For the recognition of the Arabic Sign Language, the wearable sensor is utilized. This approach has been used a different system that could suit all Arabic gestures. This could be used by the impaired people of the local Arabic community. The research method has been used with reasonable and moderate accuracy. A deep Convolutional network is initially developed for feature extraction from the data gathered by the sensing devices. These sensors can reliably recognize the Arabic sign language's 30 hand sign letters. The hand movements in the dataset were captured using DG5-V hand gloves with wearable sensors. For categorization purposes, the CNN technique is used. The suggested system takes Arabic sign language hand gestures as input and outputs vocalized speech as output. The results were recognized by 90% of the people.

Keywords: Arabic sign language; convolution neural network; hand movements; sensing device
