Gesture recognition is the conversion of a hominid movement or gesture to a machine command using a mathematical algorithm. The technology enables any person to interact with a machine using human gestures and movements, such as the movement of hands, fingers, arms, head, or the entire body. It allows the user to operate and control devices merely with these gestures without the need for physical devices such as touch screens, keyboards, and mouses. For instance, users can move a cursor by simply pointing their finger at a screen.
Gesture recognition technology has improved the usability of several machines and the adoption of many innovative applications in various industries. It processes the information conveyed by humans through gestures or speech. The machine identifies the gesture types and converts sign language symbols into text through language recognition technology. The direction in which the user points helps process and interpret gestures with accuracy.
Hand gesture recognition is one of the most popular research areas in Human-Machine Interaction (HMI) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Its applications range from medical rehabilitation to consumer electronics control. Different sensing techniques are used to identify hand gestures and obtain signals for pattern recognition.
Several kinds of prototypes have been developed to make hand gesture recognition more cost-effective than traditional interface devices such as keyboards and mouses. The increased interest of leading vendors can be attributed to the fact that hand gestures are highly expressive and interact well with the environment or share information efficiently.
