A new app that translates American sign language could make human interpreters obsolete.

The app called UNI uses "groundbreaking technology" in motion sensing and mobile computing to interpret sign language and translate it into spoken word or written text, according to medGadget. The new mobile gadget comes from MotionSavvy, whose founder and CEO Ryan Hait-Campbell is deaf.

"It's no mistake many deaf people struggle with communication throughout their whole lives," Hait Campbell told CNET.

He and his colleagues created UNI, which consists of three parts: a tablet computer, a specially-designed smart case and a mobile app. The case comes equipped with Leap Motion hardware and several cameras that can tracks the location of the signers' hands and fingers, according to medGadget.

The sensors can track finger movement down to the joint and sign up to more than a foot away, according to CNET. Sign language has various "dialects" and "accents," and the UNI will learn and adapt to the signers style, therefore improving it accuracy. The app will also add more gestures to its database "crowdsigned" by its users, according to medGadget.

The app will also translate spoken word into text for the deaf or hard of hearing person to read. This will allow people who don't know how to sign, or deaf and hard of hearing people who can't read lips to better communicate.

UNI will give its users a sense of independence, because they won't have to rely on others to communicate, according to Hait-Campbell.

MotionSavvy placed the revolutionary communication tool on Indiegogo where it can be pre-ordered for $198. The device does require a $20 a month subscription fee to run software updates and crowdsigning capabilities. The estimated shipping date is September 2015.
