Is it possible for a system to identify hand signs using just the Haar training in OpenCV?


I am doing a project on hand sign recognition on a static image. Can I use just Haar training to accomplish this?

As what I've understood, it is somewhat similar to the concept of neural networks.


Solution

  • Using Haar training maybe help to detect the hand, but not for recognize.

    The people use many approaches, so I cannot give a unique. You could make some research using Google Scholar and use the keywords "hand sign", "recognition" and "detection". Some tips: you need to segment the hand and use some template matching or other method to recognize the format. There is also a project for hand gestures here.
