Some objects in specific poses cannot be distinguished using a single view. A model is proposed and developed for 3D object recognition based on multiple-views; it was applied on hand postures recognition. A pulse-coupled neural network is used to generate features vector for single view. Two views with different view angles are used; each view generates its features’ vector. The two 2D-vectors are then linearly combined into one 3D vector. The hand postures are then combined to construct a dynamic gesture (word). The reconstruction is performed using best-match search algorithm. The experiment was conducted on 50 words and the result was 96% recognition accuracy confirming objects dataset offline extendibility.
