本文的目的是提出听力计算机科学家在聋人社区使用的手语（SL）工作时出现的伦理问题，特别是在手语识别领域。一方面，必须了解制度化SL的问题历史。另一方面，SL的语言特性必须由计算机科学家学习，然后才能尝试设计系统，目的是自动将SL翻译成口头或书面语言，反之亦然。口语和SL功能的方式是如此不同，如果没有与专门研究SL和聋人的语言学家密切合作，似乎不可能研究这个话题。
The aim of this paper is to raise the ethical problems which appear when hearing computer scientists work on the Sign Languages (SL) used by the deaf communities, specially in the field of Sign Language recognition. On one hand, the problematic history of institutionalised SL must be known. On the other hand, the linguistic properties of SL must be learned by computer scientists before trying to design systems with the aim to automatically translate SL into oral or written language or vice-versa. The way oral language and SL function is so different that it seems impossible to work on that topic without a close collaboration with linguists specialised in SL and deaf people.
