A Study on Automotive Human Vehicle Interaction Using Gesture Recognition Technology
Santosh Naik · 2012
Abstract: In order to establish a more natural and effective communication with virtual systems, hand gesture recognition appears as a suitable means. The main objective of gesture recognition is to create a system which can recognize specific human gestures and use them to convey proper message for device control or system and perform the task accordingly. The approaches on gesture recognition can be mainly classified as Data Glove Based approaches and Vision Based approaches. This paper describes Human and Machine Interface using gesture recognition as an alternative to the user using Vision Based technology. Few of the gesture recognition technologies are discussed in brief along with its application. However the main objective of the author’s interest in gesture recognition for automotive human vehicle interaction is to evaluate possible application by using hand gestures in cars (our focus is on GPS). This paper concludes with our approach on gesture recognition.
