- Abstract
In this paper, we propose a depth image based real-time 3D hand tracking method. Our method is based on the fact that human hand is an end point of human body. Therefore, we locate human hand by finding the end point from a predicted position of hand based on the hand position of the previous frame. We iteratively grow a region around the predicted position. The end point on the major axis of the region which stops moving with region growing is selected as the final position of human hand. Experiments on Microsoft Kinect for Xbox captured sequences show the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed method.
