Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of cases continued to rise. As a result, there was a growing demand for alternative control methods to traditional buttons or touch screens. However, most current gesture recognition technologies rely on machine vision methods. However, this method can lead to suboptimal recognition results, especially in situations where the camera is operating in low-light conditions or encounters complex backgrounds. This study introduces an innovative gesture recognition system for large movements that uses a combination of millimeter wave radar and a thermal imager, where the multi-color conversion algorithm is used to improve palm recognition on the thermal imager together with deep learning approaches to improve its accuracy. While the user performs gestures, the mmWave radar captures point cloud information, which is then analyzed through neural network model inference. It also integrates thermal imaging and palm recognition to effectively track and monitor hand movements on the screen. The results suggest that this combined method significantly improves accuracy, reaching a rate of over 80%.
