Abstract

Gesture-based real-time gesture recognition systems received great attention in recent years because of their ability to interact with systems efficiently through human-computer interaction. Human-Computer Interaction can gain several advantages with the establishment of different natural forms of device-free communication. Gestures are a natural form of action that we often use in our daily lives to interact, so to use them as a way of communicating with computers generates a new paradigm of computing interaction. This project implements computer vision and gesture recognition techniques and develops a vision based low-cost input software for controlling the media player through gestures.
