What it does
CODA is a music rhythm game that teaches players American Sign Language (ASL) while having fun! Players will wave ASL signs to the lyrics of a song in front of a camera. Our game scores the players based on the accuracy of their waved hand signs as well as their adherence to the beat of the song
Inspiration
Our inspiration comes from the Oscar-winning movie CODA, which stands for Child of Deaf Adults. This movie increased our awareness of people with disabilities and their families and thus made us ponder ways to help them. Our project - also named CODA - aims to make society more inclusive of deaf people, which are members of a minority group. It would be beneficial to increase the spread of American Sign Language (ASL). If more people know ASL, more people could communicate with deaf people and thus make them more integrated into society.
