چکیده

Virtual Environment (VE) system offers a natural and intelligent user interface. Hand gesture recognition is more efficient and easier interaction in VE than human-computer interface (HCI) devices like keyboards and mouses. We propose a hand gesture recognition interface that generates commands to control objects directly in a game. Our novel hand gesture recognition system utilizes both Bag-offeatures and Support Vector Machine (SVM) to realize user-friendly interaction between human and computers. The HCI based on hand gesture recognition interacts with objects in a 3D virtual environment. With this interface, the user can control and direct a helicopter by a set of hand gesture commands controlling the movements of the helicopter. Our system shows the hand gesture recognition interface can attain an enhanced and more intuitive and flexible interaction for the user than other HCI devices.

Inertial Sensor-Based Touch and Shake Metaphor for Expressive Control of 3D Virtual Avatars

In this paper, we present an inertial sensor-based touch and shake metaphor for expressive control of a 3D virtual avatar in a virtual environment. An intuitive six degrees-of-freedom wireless inertial motion sensor is used as a gesture and motion control input device with a sensor fusion algorithm. The algorithm enables user hand motions to be tracked in 3D space via magnetic, angular rate, an...
