Devlog: Glove B Completed

After weeks of development, testing, and debugging, I have finally completed Glove B of Gesture Link.

In the video, Glove B is working successfully and responding exactly as intended. You may notice a buzzing sound in the recording. That sound comes from the vibration motors activating to transmit Braille characters.

For this demonstration, the speech input “Hello, how are you?” was converted into Braille and sent directly to the glove. Each finger contains three vibration motors. Two fingers work together to form one Braille cell, while the other two fingers form a second Braille cell. By activating specific vibration patterns, the glove communicates Braille characters through touch, allowing information to be read without visual or audio output.

This marks a major milestone for the project, as the complete speech-to-Braille pipeline is now functioning on Glove B. The system can capture speech, process the text, convert it into Braille patterns, and deliver the output through haptic feedback in real time.
