| Abstract | Hand gestures are a natural and powerful way to interact with computers. This research study discusses the use of finger on a video sequence for interaction with a complex background, in particular, the Bangkok map. The algorithm is based on three main steps: hand segmentation, hand tracking and fingertip detection from hand features. Except in a few cases, the presented approach can be used in my system to locate the fingertip position precisely. |
