About Gesture Recognition Technology
Human-machine interaction has reduced the gap between the two and developed a more natural and intuitive interaction. Humans have come a long way from controlling machines through switches fitted on them to remote controls, and currently, through smartphones. In the future, it will be through natural gestures. Gesture control is by far the most natural form of controlling a device.
Gesture recognition technology interprets human motions using computer algorithms. Human motions can be movements of hands, fingers, arms, head, or the entire body. Gestures are used as an input mechanism, aimed at replacing old-fashioned input mechanisms such as keyboards, mouse devices, remote controls, and various other forms of control devices.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global gesture recognition market for emerging applications to grow at a CAGR of 52.46% during the period 2016-2020.
