Techniques for color-based tracking of faces or hands often assume a static skin color model. However, skin color perceived by a camera can change when lighting changes. In common real environment multiple light sources impinge on the skin. Therefore, for robust skin pixel detection, a dynamic skin color model that can cope with the changes must be employed. We show that skin detection in video...
