The assumption of the project was to create the first gaming sign language dictionary and thus eliminate barriers to the full perception of an esports match for the deaf. The problem of deafness digitally excludes many lovers of this discipline. Commentary is an inseparable part of every sports or esports show. It colors it, gives it pace and provides additional emotions. However, there are some who are unable to hear the caster’s voice and would also like to feel that extra thrill. Poland estimatedly bears a population of 1 million hearing-impaired people or suffering a complete loss of hearing – the sense considered by many to be the basis of everyday life. Therefore, the first Polish gaming dictionary of sign language dedicated to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive was created. The purpose of creating this dictionary was its application during broadcasts to enable the deaf to enjoy it to the fullest extent.
