Abstract
The goal of this paper is to identify the most intuitive gestures for interacting with a Smart-TV or any similar device. Thus we will be able to access in an interactive way to the digital content. In this paper, we have gathered and analyzed 360 gestures from 15 participants. The 12 most natural gestures have been chosen to interact with this device. Finally the participants performed a test, where similar studies were compared with our study.
