1 February 2022

On the basis of the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics of the Belarusian State University, with the support of the IBA Group, a special application («Surdo», Android) was created for use in practical driving training for people with hearing impairment. The authors of the application are Irina Pestrak and Elena Losik. The application translates spoken language into sign language and displays it on the phone screen.

The development and use of the application makes an important contribution to the achievement by the Republic of Belarus of the Sustainable Development Goals 10 and other SDGs.
