Summary:A system which can recognize speech and generate a corresponding animation-like sign language sequence in real time has previously been developed and implemented in a popular personal computer with a floppy disk unit and a voice recognition board which recognizes only the registered voice of a specific speaker. The sign language pattern in the floppy disk is displayed as a binarized illustration in which it is difficult to represent mouth-shape, emotion, reality, etc. Therefore, a system using optical video disk units instead of the floppy disk units is developed. In order to display a video image continuously even while searching for the next image, two optical disk units are used.
