Hand gestures are one but a few of the methods used in telerobotic control. This type of communication provides an expressive, natural and intuitive way for humans to control robotic systems to perform specific tasks. One benefit of such a system is that it is a natural way to send geometrical information to the robot such as ; left, right, forward and backward hand gestures. Human-robot interaction using hand gestures provides a formidable challenge. This is because the environment contains a complex background, dynamic lighting conditions, a deformable human hand shape, and a real-time execution requirement. This video demonstrates a tele-control system allowing a mobile robot to navigate through hand gesture commands.
