    Neat! I would qualify that this is an ASL fingerspelling classifier, rather than a general classifier for the ASL language.

    Great job Narner! I'm David Lee, and I'm glad that you have found my dataset helpful!

    Did you find the model to perform better / worse when the background varied? I see it's all wood table examples in the gifs.

    Very cool project.

    I love these applications of CV for accessibility for the blind. This is exactly what technology is made for.

    pretty awesome - I wonder if the algo could be used to teach people how to sign the alphabet - new twist on machine "learning"
