        abstract = {This paper presents the design and development of a smart glove system intended to assist speech-impaired individuals in communicating effectively using hand gestures. The glove integrates flex sensors to detect finger movements, an Arduino Mega 2560 microcontroller for processing, and a Bluetooth module (HC-05) for wireless communication with a mobile device. Predefined hand gestures are translated into corresponding voice messages or used to control home appliances via relay modules. The system also includes a voltage regulator (7805) to ensure stable power supply. This low-cost, portable solution enables real-time gesture recognition and enhances the independence of users by combining communication assistance with basic home automation functionality. The proposed design offers a user-friendly interface, high reliability, and practical utility in real-world applications, particularly for individuals with speech or mobility impairments.},
