REAL-TIME EMBEDDED VISION-BASED HUMAN HAND DETECTION

摘要

In one aspect there is provided an embodiment of an image capture device comprising a camera, an image processor, a storage device and an interface. The camera is configured to capture images in ambient light of a human hand in a field of view (FOV) of the camera. The image processor is configured to process a first one of the images to detect a presence of the hand. The image capture device is configured to assign a position of the presence of the hand, track movement of the hand within the FOV by processing at least a second one of the images and generate a command based on the tracked movement of the hand within the FOV. The interface is configured to transmit the detection of the presence of the hand, the assigned position of the hand and the command to an external apparatus.
