Abstract

A dissection model based on finger actions proposed a new symbol system of using Chinese sign language and hand shape actions, and classified hand shape actions systematically. This study proposed a unified notation system of different kinds of sign language according to a hand and wrist biomechanics model. The model thinks of finger action notation through changing every finger shape action and action of mutual relationship among the fingers. In this study a configuration table was built which provided a study frame that is irrelevant to language information and gives references to other study fields of finger action.
