Why not just do speech-to-text and display the text???
Sign language can be faster to interpret. Just how listening is faster than reading.
It's the difference between a claw and an articulated prosthetic hand.
The claw is better than nothing
The moving hand is much nicer, while still not being perfect.
Not the best metaphor, but hopefully gets my point across?
I'm very slowly learning ASL and signing is different than spoken English. Not everything gets signed, and it's often much quicker to sign back and forth than speak if two hearing people are fluent.
