Abstract—We present a real-time hand tracking technique by using a cloth glove with color markers placed at moveable hand bone positions and two different, fixed-positioned webcams. After calibrating the webcams in a preprocessing step, linear triangulation reconstructs for each match of the color blobs tracked in both images, the corresponding point in three-dimensional space. Then the necessary transformations are computed to manipulate a three-dimensional virtual hand mesh according to the reconstructed hand points of the color markers.
