  • Abstract
    Iconic hand gestures are a natural and intuitive way to convey spatial information. Capturing and interpreting iconic hand gestures will augment users´ abilities to convey spatial information with computers. This paper discusses the on-going research and the results of a study to employ iconic hand gestures as a human computer interaction (HCI) technique for the input and manipulation of objects and shapes within 3D computer generated graphical environments.
