Abstract
People diagnosed with a speech-sound disorder (SSD) may have any combination of problems creating or forming speech sounds needed to communicate with others, resulting in frustration, depression and social isolation. Enhanced by advances in artificial wearable skins and machine learning, natural verbal communication for SSD afflicted individuals is more feasible than ever before. An Assistive Magnetic Skin System (AM2S) is designed to assist speech impaired individuals to communicate with others by reading the mouth movement. The system measures the changes in the magnetic skin patches attached next to the lower lip through magnetic field sensors embedded in Magnetphones. The measured magnetic field signal data is processed using a Fine k-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) classifier model. Ultimately, the classified data can be deployed visually on a display or verbally on speakers. AM2S successfully identifies full English alphabets with an average accuracy rate of 94.96%.
