Hand detection and image recognition

hand description The hand detection and image descriptor is a tool developed for direct interaction with a device called PR2 which is a robot by a student in Stanford University. It enables hand gestures to control the movement of the robot, as the video below shows (if can see the video, please refer here Hand detection) Meanwhile, a library descriptors_2d is also presented. And, resources of learning more about the hand detection techniques and image descriptors are provided here (2d_decriptors.PDF) as well.
More information can be referred in the author’s original post here hand detection and image descriptors.

  1. Terrific work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the web. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this post higher!

    thanking you

      @Dhruva
      sorry currently i do not have gesture recognition codes that are based on database storage. what has been done is about gesture recognition in real time only, without data storage nor gesture comparisons.

  5. Dhruva says:

    Ok sir!! could you help me on this??
    Or if you have any of performing actions on hand gesture recognition ?

    hello sir,
    sir i am using histogram of an image to detect a particular color from an image.Can you suggest some example code to detect a color from a histogram image..
    Or any other efficient method.

      @Dhruva
      Please check the download page, in which there is a code file called hsv.cpp or something. that is the example of how to use colour histogram to detect specific colour object.
      Cheers
