Dynamic hand gesture recognition using kinect sensor

Continuous trajectory path made by hand over a period of time is considered for gesture recognition purpose. Dynamic gesture recognition has always been critical, since conventional method utilize separation of hand from surrounding environment and then finding of palm points make it hard. In this paper real time dynamic hand gesture recognition system using kinect sensor has been proposed. In this the movement of human hand will be captured by kinect sensor and it will be processed in OpenCV. Signal generated by OpenCV are given to Arduino and it will be utilized for controlling DC servo motor action. The computer will generate appropriate signals for controlling the action of robotic arm. The movements of robotic arm links are controlled by DC servo motors. Real-time hand tracking technique is used for object detection in the range of vision.
