TheRussian Manual Alphabet (RMA) is used forfingerspelling inRussian Sign Language.[1]
Like many other manual alphabets, the Russian Manual Alphabet bears similarities to theFrench Manual Alphabet. However, it was adapted to account for the letters of theCyrillic alphabet found in the Russian written language. It is a one-handed alphabet.[2] RMA includes 33 hand gestures, each of which corresponds to one letter in the Russian alphabet. There are no signs denoting punctuation or capitalization.[3]
In 2015, researchers at thePeoples' Friendship University of Russia developed a software–hardware system that converted RMA gestures into textual form.[3]
