Summary: | Gesture recognition has a crucial role in Human–Computer Interaction (HCI) and in assisting the elderly to perform automatically their everyday activities. In this paper, three methods for gesture recognition and computer vision were implemented and tested in order to investigate the most suitable one. All methods, machine learning using IMU, machine learning on device, and were combined with certain activities that were determined during a needs analysis research. The same volunteers took part in the pilot testing of the proposed methods. The results highlight the strengths and weaknesses of each approach, revealing that while some methods excel in specific scenarios, the integrated solution of MoveNet and CNN provides a robust framework for real-time gesture recognition. |
