That is all it takes. Anyone can build this. This model learned only from Épée, 2,400 clips by 8 Deaf signers, and has never seen you. How many signs can it read from you in 60 seconds?
signs recognized on CLERC so far. Yours count too.
The AI reads you right here, in this tab. The video never leaves your device.
Upper body in frame, hands visible, good light.
Start saves this minute as dots, never video, to make sign language AI better. 18+.
An example of what the open Épée v0.4 release already allows: a small recognizer trained on its keypoints alone, that reads people it has never seen. Épée is the open slice of the CLERC corpus, free for research under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.
The BiLSTM of the Épée benchmark: hands and arms only, 24 signs, about 86,000 parameters. Here it reads 12 of them, one word at a time. Each sign is read twice, as filmed and mirrored, so it does not matter which hand leads.
The video never leaves your device. Pressing Start saves the session's keypoints as it happens: the dots of your hands, body and face, encrypted on arrival. No image of you is ever stored, shared or sold.
