Abstract
A system and method for computer vision based tracking of a hand may include receiving a sequence of images, the images including at least one object having a shape of a hand. A first selected feature is tracked from within the hand shaped object. Shape recognition algorithms are applied at a suspected location of the hand shaped object in an image from the sequence of images to detect a shape of a hand in the image and a second feature from within the detected shape of the hand is then selected and tracked, thereby providing verification and updating of the location of the hand shaped object.
