Abstract

An online gesture recognition system using a dynamical programming, One-Pass DP, is proposed in this paper. Firstly, 8 directions of hand motions are extracted with skin color analysis and optical flow calculation using a primary visual cortex model. Then, the patterns of motion are used to compose 40 basic templates of gestures. At last, hand gestures are recognized by the One-Pass DP algorithm. Experiments dealt with individual and compound gestures were executed by online processing, the results confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed system.
