Chapter 10. Gesture Recognition

Hand Gesture Synthesis for Conversational Characters

This chapter focuses on the generation of animated gesticulations, co-verbal gestures that are designed to accompany speech. It begins with a survey of research on human gesture, discussing the various forms of gesture, their structure and timing requirements relative to speech. The two main problems for synthesizing gesture animation are determining what gestures a character should perform (th...

Online Gesture Analysis and Control of Audio Processing

This chapter presents a general framework for gesture-controlled audio processing. The gesture parameters are assumed to be multi-dimensional temporal profiles obtained from movement or sound capture systems. The analysis is based on machine learning techniques, comparing the incoming dataflow with stored templates. The mapping procedures between the gesture and the audio processing include a s...
