  abstract  = {2017 marked the release of a new version of SignStream{\textregistered} software, designed to facilitate linguistic analysis of ASL video. SignStream{\textregistered} provides an intuitive interface for labeling and time-aligning manual and non-manual components of the signing. Version 3 has many new features. For example, it enables representation of morpho-phonological information, including display of handshapes. An expanding ASL video corpus, annotated through use of SignStream{\textregistered}, is shared publicly on the Web. This corpus (video plus annotations) is Web-accessible---browsable, searchable, and downloadable---thanks to a new, improved version of our Data Access Interface: DAI 2. DAI 2 also offers Web access to a brand new Sign Bank, containing about 10,000 examples of about 3,000 distinct signs, as produced by up to 9 different ASL signers. This Sign Bank is also directly accessible from within SignStream{\textregistered}, thereby boosting the efficiency and consistency of annotation; new items can also be added to the Sign Bank. Soon to be integrated into SignStream{\textregistered} 3 and DAI 2 are visualizations of computer-generated analyses of the video: graphical display of eyebrow height, eye aperture, and head position. These resources are publicly available, for linguistic and computational research and for those who use or study ASL.}
