Abstract :
In this paper, a new approach is proposed for hand gesture recognition, that is accomplished by dominant points based hand finger counting under skin color extraction. Skin color detection is used as a preprocessing segmentation, and the hand gesture contour can be extracted by this mean. after hand segmentation is done, dominant points based algorithm is used for counting hand fingers in this hand gesture control system. the performance and comparison is evaluated in the end as well. then the hand gesture control system can be implement by fuzzy logical efficiently this way.
