ASL does not have a 1:1 correspondence with spoken language and it uses a large amount of "short hand" and "place holders" for various situations. Throw in fingerspelling, which many signers can do at a very fast rate, and I strongly doubt the ability of a fixed location camera to accurately read an ASL conversation at any useful level.
