Abstract

The technology disclosed also initializes a new hand that enters the field of view of a gesture recognition system using a parallax detection module. The parallax detection module determines candidate regions of interest (ROI) for a given input hand image and computes depth, rotation and position information for the candidate ROI. Then, for each of the candidate ROI, an ImagePatch, which includes the hand, is extracted from the original input hand image to minimize processing of low-information pixels. Further, a hand classifier neural network is used to determine which ImagePatch most resembles a hand. For the qualified, most-hand like ImagePatch, a 3D virtual hand is initialized with depth, rotation and position matching that of the qualified ImagePatch.
