Gesture recognition system and finger tracking with kinect: Steps

Abstract

The automatic interpretation of human gestures based on the kinect sensor offers new opportunities for human-computer interaction (HCI) more natural and intuitive than conventional devices. Thus, Finger and hand gesture detection constitutes an active research axis because certain situations demand silenced conversation. In fact, visual explanation of hand movements and finger detection can be helpful to achieve the easiness preferred for HCI. It is a famed method to communicate with machines and it has been developed in many applications. In this paper we present a view of the current research. We will start by defining certain number of terms then by interpreting the main steps of system recognition gesture and fingertips tracking.
