Present paper explores possibilities to apply hybrid recognition technique to detect different types of surgeons's write hand motions during endoscope surgery. Proposed technique uses finite time automata which switches between three different detection techniques; neural networks based detection, statistical based method and Kohonen-map based technique. Such approach allows to avoid errors peculiar to certain technique.
