Abstract

We present the $3 Gesture Recognizer, a simple but robust gesture recognition system for input devices featuring 3D acceleration sensors. The algorithm is designed to be implemented quickly in prototyping environments, is intended to be device-independent and does not require any special toolkits or frameworks. It relies solely on simple trigonometric and geometric calculations. A user evaluation of our system resulted in a correct gesture recognition rate of 80%, when using a set of 10 unique gestures for classification. Our method requires significantly less training data than other gesture recognizers and is thus suited to be deployed and to deliver results rapidly.
