Real-Time 3D Hand Gesture Detection from Depth Images

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, we describe an real-time algorithm to detect 3D hand gestures from depth images. Firstly, we detect moving regions by frame difference; then, regions are refined by removing small regions and boundary regions; finally, foremost region is selected and its trajectories are classified using an automatic state machine. Experiments on Microsoft Kinect for Xbox captured sequences show the effectiveness and efficiency of our system.
