Image processor comprising gesture recognition system with static hand pose recognition based on dynamic warping

Abstract

An image processing system comprises an image processor having image processing circuitry and an associated memory. The image processor is configured to implement a gesture recognition system comprising a static pose recognition module. The static pose recognition module is configured to identify a hand region of interest in at least one image, to extract a contour of the hand region of interest, to compute a feature vector based at least in part on the extracted contour, and to recognize a static pose of the hand region of interest utilizing a dynamic warping operation based at least in part on the feature vector.
