Abstract :
Gesture recognition has been extensively investigated and has traditionally been accomplished by methods based on computer vision. In this paper we present an hand gesture recognition system which is of general use and can be used for different applications. The system is based on a MEMS accelerometer and it is able to recognise several gestures which have been previously recorded into a suitable vocabulary.
