Abstract :
Our purpose is to recognize the human gestures from motion image without using contact type sensors such as data gloves or markers on hands. This paper proposes a method which can extracts good features from a small-sized image of a person and demonstrates the effectiveness using an omni-directional camera which can capture the gestures of more than one person
