Abstract:
An apparatus for recognizing gestures in a picture includes a Hough transformer configured to identify elements in the picture or in a pre-processed version of the picture as identified gesture elements and to obtain information about the identified gesture elements.The apparatus further includes a gesture description creator configured to obtain a gesture description while using the information about the identified gesture elements.Moreover, the apparatus includes a gesture classifier configured to compare the gesture description to a plurality of comparative gesture descriptions having gesture codes associated with them. The gesture classifier is configured to provide, as the result of the comparison, a gesture code of a recognized gesture.
