Real Time Gesture Recognition System for Interaction in Dynamic Environment

Human Computer Interaction techniques have become a bottleneck in the effective utilization of the available information flow. The development of user interfaces influences the changes in the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Human hand gestures have been a mode of non verbal interaction widely used. Naturalistic and intuitiveness of the hand gesture has been a great motivating factor for the researchers in the area of HCI to put their efforts to research and develop the more promising means of interaction between human and computers. This paper designs a system for gestural interaction between a user and a computer in dynamic environment. The gesture recognition system uses image processing techniques for detection, segmentation, tracking and recognition of hand gestures for converting it to a meaningful command. The interface being proposed here can be substantially applied towards different applications like image browser, games etc.
