چکیده

This paper presents two approaches used to control a 2-axis servomechanism by gesture recognition. For both approaches, the adopted control philosophy was: In the system’s learning phase, the control images are acquired by a generic webcam and associated to the desired orders. On the other hand, in the working phase, each control image is acquired, by the same webcam and, by comparison with the stored orders images, the desired order is recognized and processed by the servomechanism in quasi real time. In this paper, the used servomechanism and both implemented approaches are described, and are indicated some advantages and weakness of each one. Two examples of images control sets are also presented, and some conclusions and future works are addressed.

Two Approaches for a Servomechanism Control System Using Computer Vision

In this paper a servomechanism vision control system, based on hand language, is presented. The control images are acquired by a generic webcam and processed, in the working phase, in quasi real time. For this processing, two approaches were considered: in the first one, we used the object control moments to identify the desired order; in the second approach, we used image control orientation h...

Translation of Sign Language Using Generic Fourier Descriptor and Nearest Neighbour

Sign languages are used all over the world as a primary means of communication by deaf people. Sign language translation is a promising application for vision-based gesture recognition methods. Therefore, it is need such a tool that can translate sign language directly. This paper aims to create a system that can translate static sign language into textual form automatically based on computer v...

Human-Computer Interface Based on Visual Lip Movement and Gesture Recognition

The multimodal human-computer interface (HCI) called LipMouse is presented, allowing a user to work on a computer using movements and gestures made with his/her mouth only. Algorithms for lip movement tracking and lip gesture recognition are presented in details. User face images are captured with a standard webcam. Face detection is based on a cascade of boosted classifiers using Haar-like fea...

MouseFree Vision-Based Human-Computer Interaction through Real-Time Hand Tracking and Gesture Recognition

Vision-based interaction is an appealing option for replacing primitive human-computer interaction (HCI) using a mouse or touchpad. We propose a system for using a webcam to track a user’s hand and recognize gestures to initiate specific interactions. The contributions of our work will be to implement a system for hand tracking and simple gesture recognition in realtime. We also plan to create ...

Gesture Recognition Using Hidden Markov Model

Hand gestures are used by many applications, such as mobile phone, robots, television and gaming purposes. In order to employ hand gestures as input for a control application, it requires recognition of gesture with a high precision rate, with minimum probability of error. In the research presented, the signs are executed with one hand as it is sufficient for many everyday applications. The ges...
