Abstract :
This work presents the necessary developments to set up an interface for piloting of the teleoperated systems. This interface, transparent, makes it possible to the operator to control the system in a natural way by the natural gestures and without contact, no sensor being used. To achieve this goal, we need to determine the "configuration" of the operator. We do that by calculating : the position of the operator, the position and the configuration of his hand, and finally the position of his face for the extraction of the facial expressions
