Abstract

This paper suggests a hand gesture recognition technology to control smart devices using multiple Doppler radars and a support vector machine(SVM), which is one of the machine learning algorithms. Whereas single Doppler radar can recognize only simple hand gestures, multiple Doppler radar can recognize various and complex hand gestures by using various Doppler patterns as a function of time and each device. In addition, machine learning technology can enhance recognition accuracy. In order to determine the feasibility of the suggested technology, we implemented a test-bed using two Doppler radars, NI DAQ USB-6008, and MATLAB. Using this test-bed, we can successfully classify four hand gestures, which are Push, Pull, Right Slide, and Left Slide. Applying SVM machine learning algorithm, it was confirmed the high accuracy of the hand gesture recognition.
