Real-time translation between sign language and speech.
For · Deaf and hearing people who need to talk without an interpreter present.
EchoBridge is FLOWNET's flagship research initiative: a real-time, two-way translation layer between sign language and spoken language.
The system combines computer vision for sign recognition, speech-to-text for voice input, and a dual-screen interface that lets deaf and hearing participants converse naturally without an interpreter in the room.
EchoBridge received the Red Dot Design Award 2025. Its translation core is released as open source, and the product is distributed at no cost to qualifying community organizations, schools and healthcare partners.
