Abstract
Recently, a system that supports efficient interaction, a human machine interface (HMI), has become a hot topic. In this paper, we propose a new real time low-cost hand gesture control system as one of vehicle interaction methods. In order to reduce computation time, depth information was acquired using a time-of-flight (TOF) camera because it requires a large amount of computation when detecting hand regions using an RGB camera. In addition, fourier descriptor were used to reduce the learning model. Since the Fourier descriptor uses only a small number of points in the whole image, it is possible to miniaturize the learning model. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed technique, we compared the speeds of desktop and raspberry pi2. Experimental results show that performance difference between small embedded and desktop is not significant. In the gesture recognition experiment, the recognition rate of 95.16% is confirmed.
