Abstract

Abstract:This paper presents a method of computer interaction using the IS-300Pro PrecisionMotion Tracker. The motion tracker compares the gestures with a defined pattern ofmovement so that it can be recognized. The method is developed using infrared lightemitting diodes (IR LEDs) attached to the thumb and index fingers of two gloves, andthe IS-300Pro motion tracker connected to a computer using the USB port. Amicrocontroller unit (MCU) supporting USB connection is employed for computerinterface. Software developed specifically for the application is installed in thecomputer. The system is able to recognize gestures for alphanumeric characters, as wellas user-defined gestures. The software interprets the gestures captured by the motiontracker and translates them to corresponding response hardcoded in the software. Threesoftware programs were developed to demonstrate the capabilities of the system.Experiments show that distance between the sensor and IR LEDs affects the accuracy ofgesture recognition and interpretation.
