Today I read a paper titled “Real-Time Human-Computer Interaction Based on Face and Hand Gesture Recognition”
The abstract is:
At the present time, hand gestures recognition system could be used as a more expected and useable approach for human computer interaction
Automatic hand gesture recognition system provides us a new tactic for interactive with the virtual environment
In this paper, a face and hand gesture recognition system which is able to control computer media player is offered
Hand gesture and human face are the key element to interact with the smart system
We used the face recognition scheme for viewer verification and the hand gesture recognition in mechanism of computer media player, for instance, volume down/up, next music and etc
In the proposed technique, first, the hand gesture and face location is extracted from the main image by combination of skin and cascade detector and then is sent to recognition stage
In recognition stage, first, the threshold condition is inspected then the extracted face and gesture will be recognized
In the result stage, the proposed technique is applied on the video dataset and the high precision ratio acquired
Additional the recommended hand gesture recognition method is applied on static American Sign Language (ASL) database and the correctness rate achieved nearby 99.40%
also the planned method could be used in gesture based computer games and virtual reality
