چکیده

Modern interface devices such as depth field cameras and touch sensitive screen offer new scope for navigation large and complex image data sets. Image sequences from movies or simulations can be treated as hyper-bricks of navigable data. We have implemented an image navigation interface framework that supports a compatible set of both depth-field hand gestures and touch-screen finger movements. We report on how these two apparently disparate interfaces can be combined in a unifying software architecture and explore the human computer interaction space of suitable gestural and touch idioms and metaphors suitable for rapid interactive navigation and rendering of a sequence of images from a simulation, from photographic stills, or frames of a movie. We compare the two sorts of interaction and discuss a descriptive vocabulary for these and suggest some directions for development and use in other bulk data navigation interfaces.

Infrared Camera-Based Hand Gesture Space Touch System Implementation of Smart Device Environment

This paper proposes a method to recognize the tip of a finger and space touch hand gesture using an infrared camera in a smart device environment. The proposed method estimates the tip of a finger with a curvature-based ellipse fitting algorithm, and verifies that the estimated object is indeed a finger with an ellipse fitting rectangular area. The feature extracted from the verified finger tip...

2-Dimensional Finger Gesture Based Mobile Robot Control Using Touch Screen

The purpose of this study was to present a reliable mean for human-computer interfacing based on finger gestures made in two dimensions, which could be interpreted and adequately used in controlling a remote robot's movement. The gestures were captured and interpreted using an algorithm based on trigonometric functions, in calculating the angular displacement from one point of touch to another ...

2-Thumb Gesture: The Design & Evaluation of a Non-Sequential Bi-manual Gesture Based Text Input Technique for Touch Tablets

We present 2-Thumb Gesture (2TG), a non-sequential bi-manual gesture-based text input technique for touch tablets, which enables the user to enter text with both hands by using each thumb to draw small strokes over the keys on their respective sides of the keyboard without waiting for their turn in the letter sequence of a word. The results of a study comparing 2TG to Swype (a 1-finger word dra...

Expansion of Smartwatch Touch Interface from Touchscreen to Around Device Interface Using Infrared Line Image Sensors

Touchscreen interaction has become a fundamental means of controlling mobile phones and smartwatches. However, the small form factor of a smartwatch limits the available interactive surface area. To overcome this limitation, we propose the expansion of the touch region of the screen to the back of the user's hand. We developed a touch module for sensing the touched finger position on the back o...

Neural Network Performance Analysis for Real Time Hand Gesture Tracking Based on Hu Moment and Hybrid Features

This paper presents a comparison study between the multilayer perceptron (MLP) and radial basis function (RBF) neural networks with supervised learning and back propagation algorithm to track hand gestures. Both networks have two output classes which are hand and face. Skin is detected by a regional based algorithm in the image, and then networks are applied on video sequences frame by frame in...
