Abstract

Lately, the research world has been aggressively exploring techniques and means to develop effective systems for Human Computer Interaction (HCI). Humans interact with computers using different interfaces like Graphical User Interfaces (GUI), Voice User Interfaces (VUI) and Gestures. Among these methods gesture interaction provides a very handy means of dealing with computers. The goal of gesture recognition is to recognize and differentiate the human gestures and make use of these gestures for applications in specific areas. The aim of this paper is to provide a survey on numerous techniques employed for gesture recognition, and to outline preliminary system architecture for implementation.
