چکیده

We discuss in this paper gesture-based interaction techniques that are appropriate for everyday office desk scenarios for which the constraints of the workspace and the seated position limit the available range of body motions. We are interested in gestures performed by hands and head and highlight our findings with regards to the acquisition and recognition of such gestures using vision techniques. Possible applications and implementations are discussed with focus on the intuitiveness and easy-of-use of the involved gesture vocabularies.

Corpus Creation and Perceptual Evaluation of Expressive Theatrical Gestures

While human communication involves rich, complex and expressive gestures, available corpora of captured motions used for the animation of virtual characters contain actions ranging from locomotion to everyday life motions. We aim at creating a novel corpus of expressive and meaningful gestures, and we focus on body movements and gestures involved in theatrical scenarios. In this paper we propos...

The Flo)(ps: Negotiating Between Habitual and Explorative Gestures

The perceived affordances of an everyday object guide its user toward habitual movements and experiences. Physical actions that are not immediately associated with established body techniques often remain neglected.
