Abstract:
The research comprised within this document validates that the parameters and features of sign language can be written within the constraints of the symbols and characters located on a standard keyboard for the purpose of reading and writing a visual language. This writing system is a means for writing signed languages and emphasis is placed on this pursuit, however, this method of writing could be used for writing gestures, movements and poses. This method of writing is easier to use than previous methods developed for writing sign language, because the media methods, typing and hand-printing, are readily available and easily accessible for communication. The keyboards ability to accommodate Braille allows individuals who are both Deaf and blind access to this method of writing.
