I'm developing an embedded accelerometer-based hand gesture recognition. Does anybody know about some free libraries to employ or to start from? I'm working with embedded linux and I'm looking for something not too much computation-heavy. I couldn't find much on google apart from dozens of theoretical papers, youtube videos or "closed" applications.
I understand it's a pretty broad question, but I think it can help everybody in the same situation.
Thank you!
If you haven't already seen these...
There are two projects started as academic projects:
http://www.dfki.de/~rnessel/tools/gesture_recognition/gesture_recognition.htm (with source code)
and
the gRmobile framework: all I can find is a paper: http://www.ic.uff.br/~esteban/files/papers/SBGames09_Mark_A.pdf
Hope that helps! There doesn't seem to be much out there. But, if you are looking to do a little more work, not necessarily relying on a library, definitely be sure to read through the gesture information from the Android Dev site (the Gesture Recognition API): http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/gestures.html
