Worked on an individual project at the Automation, Robotics & Mechatronics Lab.
Project summary:
Worked on hand gesture recognition system for recognizing specific gestures
The user wears a special wristband which the system sees via a common webcam
Several features are computed from the image acquired using the camera in real-time
The features are then compared to features of defined gestures for identification
