Abstract :
This paper presented a dynamic hand gesture recognition system for home appliance control using only the depth camera. The dynamic hand gesture is recognized using static hand postures and hand trajectory. The proposed system can recognize seven commonly used dynamic hand gestures. Experimental results show that the system is effective for home appliance control.
