Description
Summary:Hand gesture recognition system has evolved tremendously in the recent few years because of its ability to interact with machine efficiently. Mankind tries to incorporate human gestures into modern technology by searching and finding a replacement of multi touch technology which does not require any touching movement on screen. This paper presents an overview on several methods to realize hand gesture recognition by using three main modules: camera and segmentation module, detection module and feature extraction module. There are many methods which can be used to get the respective results depending on its advantages. Summary of previous research and results of hand gesture methods as well as comparison between gesture recognition are also given in this paper. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
