Abstract :
Interact is a cloud based gesture recognition solution based on the FI-WARE cloud platform, realized by means of cloud services communicating with each other through REST APIs. To promote the development of Future Internet (FI) applications, all functionalities of Interact are offered as cloud services. The system is sensor independent and is designed to work with the most popular motion sensors. To show proof of concept, a system prototype has been developed utilizing the LEAP Motion sensor.
