 The goal of The American Sign Language Project is to develop and disseminate non-invasive technology that improves communication between the Deaf, hard-of-hearing and hearing communities. Our purpose is to foster the development and to distribute technology that will make it easier for the Deaf and hard-of-hearing to communicate with the hearing world.

Projects:

  • The Software Grant Program provides software produced by The American Sign Language Project accredited Interpreter Training Programs and licensed and/or accredited organizations that serves populations who use sign language as the perferred form of communication.

  • Fingerspelling Tutor, an interactive program featuring true-to-life fingerspelling. Installation information on Fingerspelling Tutor is available at following this link.

  • Deborah 2.0 is a streamlined interactive dctionary where you can browse for a sign visually or by selecting a word. This app runs on smart phones, your favorite web browser, or as a desktop app. See the support pages for Deborah 2.0

  • The Nicholas J. Deleonardis Scholarship program encourages students to join in the effort to develop technology that facilitates Deaf / hearing communication.

  • The Nicholas J. Deleonardis Undergraduate Award recognizes undergraduate college students who engage in projects regarding non-invasive technologies that will improve communication between Deaf and hearing people.
