The project "Musical learning for children with hearing loss: testing the translation of Libras into sounds using Artificial Intelligence," developed by professors Cristiano Benites, Guilherme Cestari, and Jefferson Oliveira, was the big winner in the AI and Education category at the 6th Artificial Intelligence Congress, held by PUC-SP in partnership with PUC-Campinas and PUC-Rio.
The research investigates how AI can act as a bridge between Libras and musical experiences, allowing children with hearing impairments to explore rhythm, sound patterns, and artistic expression from their own linguistic repertoires. This is a breakthrough that combines technology, accessibility, and creativity, opening up new possibilities for sensory learning.
The integration of music, accessibility, and technology demonstrates how AI can act in a humanized way, breaking down communication barriers and promoting meaningful learning experiences.
