Abstract

In this paper, we developed the telecommunication system via internet network for Thai sign language video [11], which is point to point communication and allocated low bit rate. The purpose is deaf people can be able to communicate between long distance areas and can be applied to other applications such as Thai sign language video conference system, E-Learning for deaf. Because of insufficient instructor that can communicate with deaf student. And, the Tele-conference could be better solution which is useful for human resource development. Overall of system, there are three main diagrams of this system which comprise of Transmitter user, Receiver user and Video server. This algorithm serves Thai Sign Language video that includes the system which is skin-color detection model. The model divided into two levels from pixel value such as skin, and background (non skin). The result of detection model is brought in the part of video coding which makes difference coding level. Then, overall system is developed to support low bit rate communication in order to utilize bandwidth of channel and rising efficiently of sign language video communication. Advantages of this system are truly on practicality, low cost implementation and application developer (JMF) [12] which can customized in the future.
