StorySign is a free app, that reads selected children’s books and
translates them into sign language, to help deaf children learn how to
read.
This is how it works. First, the child or parent opens the app and
clicks on the selected book from the StorySign library. Then they hold
their phone up to the words on the page, and our friendly avatar, Star,
signs the story as the printed words are highlighted. This allows
parents and children to learn to sign and read together, at their own pace.
StorySign is powered by Huawei AI, supported by charities including the
European Union of the Deaf and the British Deaf Association, designed by
Aardman Animations, with a classic children’s books from Penguin Random
House.
