Hand Pose Estimation System Based On Viola-Jones Algorithm For Android Devices

This paper focuses on hand pose estimation by proposing a system that solves real-time static hand gesture detection and recognition issues for interacting with smartphones. The first step of our work consists in detecting and tracking the hand in a complex background. The second step consists in recognizing hand gestures using SVM "Support Vector Machine". Finally, we developed a grammar to generate gesture commands for mobile applications control. This work presents a system based on a real-time hand gesture recognition algorithm for Android devices. The idea here is to allow the user interacting with the mobile device without the need to touch the screen. In this system, the Smartphone is able to perform all necessary steps to recognize gestures without the need to connect to a distant device.
