Abstract
A method for calculating an estimated hand motion vector of a plurality of images includes selecting a current video frame and a previous video frame from a video stream, dividing the current video frame into a plurality of macroblocks, selecting a subset of macroblocks from the current video frame, comparing the subset of macroblocks to the previous video frame within a two dimensional comparison range to generate a set of motion vectors, calculating a frame motion vector for the current video frame, estimating a steady motion vector for the current video frame by a first-order autoregression, and calculating a hand motion vector for the current video frame by taking a difference between the steady motion vector and the frame motion vector of the current video frame.
