  • Abstract
    In this review paper, we analyse the basic components of sign language and examine several techniques which are helpful to design a large vocabulary recognition system for a sign language. The main focus of this research is to highlight the significance of unaddressed issues, their associated challenges and possible solutions over a wide technology spectrum.
