Abstract

With many advances made in the area of automatic gesture recognition, gestural control has gradually gained its acceptance and popularity. However, the research to date has tended to focus on recognition technologies rather than human behaviors. With an emphasis on users, this paper reviews recent research literature on hand gestural control in home environment. The aim is to summarize and analyze current development processes of gesture vocabularies for commanding home appliances. A semiotic dual triadic model is proposed for the review of the control commands for the appliances, the types of hand gestures, the derivation processes of designer-defined and user-defined gestures. A typical derivation process for a user-defined gesture set was first collecting raw data by inquiring potential users to perform the most suitable gestures that they thought for triggering the given commands or functions, and then applying algorithms for the selection of final gesture vocabularies. A brief comparison among the research results of user-defined freehand gestures for TV control commands was provided as an example to show a need of research in this area. Further research direction includes the exploration of broader user population and the refinement of current gesture selection algorithms.
