Abstract :
This paper proposes a gesture recognition system capable of providing a contactless controller via depth-based hand tracking. Main proposal is a hand tracking algorithm in depth image by calculating a hand weighted probability. An implementation of the proposed system into a contactless controller application demonstrated its effectiveness.
