Gesture recognition using Microsoft Kinect®
نویسندگان
چکیده
Gesture recognition is essential for human – machine interaction. In this paper we propose a method to recognize human gestures using a Kinect® depth camera. The camera views the subject in the front plane and generates a depth image of the subject in the plane towards the camera. This depth image is then used for background removal, followed by generation of the depth profile of the subject. In addition to this, the difference between subsequent frames gives the motion profile of the subject and is used for recognition of gestures. These allow the efficient use of depth camera to successfully recognize multiple human gestures. The result of a case study involving 8 gestures is shown. The system was trained using a multi class Support Vector Machine. Keywords-gestures, segmentation, kinect, depth image, SVM.
