The use of gesture as a natural interface serves as a motivating force for research in modeling, analyzing and recognition of gestures. In particular, human computer intelligent interaction needs vision-based gesture recognition, which involves many interdisciplinary studies. A survey on recent vision-based gesture recognition approaches is given in this paper. We shall review methods of static...

The evolution of user interfaces shapes the changes in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Direct use of hand as an input device is an attractive method for providing natural HCI. The applications of gesture recognition are manifold, ranging from sign language to medical rehabilitation to virtual reality. In this paper we present a brief review of vision based hand gesture recognition. Key-Words:...
