Abstract :
We have been developing a hand gesture based computer mouse controlling system, whose central issue is the precise controllability and the comfort of the user. The Kinect for Windows sensor provides the data to process. We have investigated 11 different hand signs inside a special zone to choose appropriate gestures for controlling. In this paper we point out the advantages and disadvantages of the potential solutions and present the preliminary results of our system.
