Gestures for Manually Controlling a Helping Hand Robot

Human Robot Interaction using Dynamic Hand Gestures

This paper describes the implementation of a robust dynamic hand gesture recognizer using a depth sensor. The recognizer uses only depth image information, and the hand position provided by a hand tracker library, in order to construct its feature vectors. The recognizer builds two types of feature vectors to increase accuracy; the frame feature vectors that describe a static hand, and the sequ...

Vision-Based Hand Gestures Recognition for Human-Robot Interaction

This paper presents a vision-based hand gesture recognition system for interaction between human and robot. A real-time two hands gestures recognition system has been developed by combining three larger components analysis based on skin-color segmentation and multiple features based template-matching techniques. Gesture commands are generated and issued whenever the combinations of three skin-l...

Interacting with a Pet Robot using Hand Gestures

Pet robots are autonomous robots capable of exhibiting ~imal-like behaviors, including emotional ones. As they become more integrated into our lives, we will need a more natural way of communicating with them. Similarly, to perceive our intentions more effectively, they will need to understand human gestures. This work focuses on the real-time, visual interpretation of 2D dynamic hand gestures ...
