USING HAND RECOGNITION IN TELEROBOTICS

The objective of this project is to recognize selected hand gestures and imitate the recognized hand gesture using a robot. A telerobotics system that relies on computer vision to create the human-machine interface was build. Hand tracking was used as an intuitive control interface, as it represents...
