In the proposed humans always need something that stands system, we are going to use one such out from the other thing. Gestures are most technique called Augmentation in Image desirable source to Communicate with the processing to control Media Player. We will Machines. Human Computer Interaction recognize Gestures using which we are going finds its importance when it comes to to control the operations on Media player. working with the Human gestures to control Augmentation usually is one step ahead when the computer applications. Usually we control it comes to virtual reality. It has no the applications using mouse, keyboard, laser restrictions on the background. Moreover it pointers etc. but , with the recent advent in also doesn’t rely on certain things like gloves, the technology it has even left behind their color pointers etc. for recognizing the gesture. usage by introducing more efficient This system mainly appeals to those users techniques to control applications. There are who always looks out for a better option that many Gesture Recognition techniques that makes their interaction with computer more have been implemented using image simpler or easier. processing in the past. Keywords: Gesture Recognition, Human Computer Interaction, Augmentation I.INTRODUCTION: Augmentation in controlling the media player operations. Media player always In Human Computer interaction, the first requires mouse or keyboard to control it. and foremost thing is the interfacing. There Every media player application when its are many techniques that have been active has the basic operations on it. It has implemented so far as interfacing also got some shortcut keys that requires the techniques. Gesture Plays an important role keyboard, to perform some action related while interacting with the Computer with every key. But when the keyboard applications. It enables humans to malfunctions or not working these things communicate with the machine and interact become somewhat difficult to control. In without any mechanical device. In Gesture this case using Gestures one can handle any Recognition , there has been always an issue application. Augmented reality makes it about how to interact with the Computer. very user friendly to control any application Various bodily gestures are used to interact using gestures. with Computer, they include, hands , face, legs, eyes etc but most commonly used are II.Existing system: hands and face. Hand gestures can be used as various commands to operate certain Gesture Recognition aims to interpret applications. But main problem in Hand human gestures via Mathematical gestures is they totally depends on the Algorithms. There have been many gesture database that is the storage space for their recognition techniques that are presently gesture matching. They are static gestures worked on such as Color pointer techniques that needs memory to store the images and many more. learn a particular gesture. For tackling this A.Hand gesture one of the problem, Augmentation, was introduced as Human Computer Interaction Modeling of hand gesture mainly require technology, that aims to combine the 2D or gesture regniation which provide new way ta 3D virtual objects with the real world access machine[4].for modeling mainly pictures[1]. Augmentation also called as consider two methods which famously Augmented Reality or Virtual Reality, is knows as spatial and temporial method .this more user friendly. So far we were very two method used in different situation used too on the devices like keyboard, spatial used where shape is important factor mouse etc. This is one such technique that while temporial used where motion of hand eliminate their usage. The proposed paper is consider[4].in 2D and 3D Implementation focuses on Gesture Recognition using of hand modeling spatial is important one[5]. Fig no1.Hand modeling method Shape having two types geometric and non color and other facters.there are many geometric[6].geometric mainly related to the methods given below which is helpful for motion and finger postion and palm hand modeling system properties.while non-geometric consider Fig no 2.Methods Various hand modeling methods to represent hand posture [7]. (a) 3D volumetric model. (b) 3Dgeometric model. (c) 3D Skeleton model. (d) Colored marker based model. (e) Non-geometric shape model(Binary silhouette [5]). (f) 2D deformable template model . Motion based model. We study different techniques color area the it may confuse to select pointer technique which involves using object[8].also there are skeleton based various color pointers. These color pointers method where noise hand diction is very are used on the fingers for Hand gesture difficult one task[8].also all this method recognition[8]. A very popular example of affecting with lighting condition [8].and also this has been covered by the Pranav Mistry all are static in nature where base image on the Sixth Sense. Another very popular required. scale problem come where system that exists is the wearable glove that different size of hand comes in picture .back is used for tracking fingers and hand which ground is also important one[9]. so we have is a Computer vision based recognition. to come up with new idea which There exist the optic light based technology considerably remove all of this drawback in which does not usually require user to that case augmented reality is better interact with device by physically touching solution. anything, simple hand motions and gestures can be used to interact with the device[2]. III.Augmented reality The color models that were used so far was Augmented reality is combination of real totally based on the RGB .but all methods world with virtual environment .where it is having some limit on like data glove in used in many areas like medical and other which it is compulsory to wear data glove areas. in gaming system it play important every time and also which are more role[10]. All the draw back which face expensive one[8].while color pointer previously can remove here basic system require that to wear color pointer on hand architecture [10]. and if same color appear within regnition Fig no3.Architeture IV.Proposed System for hand detection: Ppp Fig no4.system architecture In the Proposed system, the main focus is on After capture image we have to blur image Recognizing Dynamic Gestures of the user so sharpness reduce so that we get accurete via a Webcam which could be built-in or dectcion. externally used Camera. Analyzing the gestures and applying the Image Processing B.RGB TO HSV – algorithms like RBG to HSV conversion, RGB gives more specific value related to blurring, thresholding, blob detection etc[1]. image where we require saturated value Algorithms- related that image so we convert into HSV. A.Bluring image- C. Thresholding - Where segmentation can be done easily with the help of thresholding. D. Blob detecting – operations of the application .Virtual menu will be displayed on the live captured feed which mainly used to find out particular area for action selection. User can directly point from the image. towards the button/action for dynamic input. User can also point with the bare hands or using glove or any other object as well. V.Application- There will be no restrictions on the background. So Augmentation has the Using Augmented Reality the gesture will advantage for its efficiency. be detected for carrying out certain PLAY STOP PREVIOUS NEXT Fig no5.augmented system In the following diagram, there is a virtual interface between the user and the computer. menu displayed on the screen , the User User can control any applications in the near gesture will be feeder through the Webcam future using Augmented Reality. User can and based on the position of the user hands, directly point to the screen and feed the the gesture will analyzed for the particular gestures to control the various functions of Media Player function to be performed. the Media Player. There is more accuracy Media Player has to be a active application rate in the Augmented Reality. while using this system. Augmentation surely is most promising Human Computer Interaction Technologies VI.Conclusion: to come across. It has a great potential in the This paper presents the system can handle coming future to mark a better efficiency in with a Augmented Reality technique. This the e-commerce systems as well. also focuses on a more User friendly This system has the is no need of the databases as it is totally advantage over other system that, it does not works on dynamic gestures behaviour. have restrictions on the background.
