Abstract :
Hand gestures serve as primary tools for man-machine interaction. Hand Gesture Recognition System provides a natural, innovative and modern way on non verbal communication. A wide area of applications in Human Computer Interaction and Sign Language Recognition are available over last decade. This paper is a part of the project that aims at designing a real time system that would recognize sign language accurately. The gestures are recognized through camera based and 5DT data glove based systems respectively and these are combined to increase the recognition rate. The proposed fusion algorithm provides a high recognition rate as compared to discrete approaches.
