Methods, systems, and products for gesture-activation
Methods, systems, and products are disclosed recognizing gestures. A sequence of images is captured by a camera and compared to a stored sequence of images in memory. A gesture is then recognized in the stored sequence of images.
1. A method, comprising:
receiving, by a processor, a video signal corresponding to a stream of images captured by a camera;
retrieving, from memory, a set of gesture images;
comparing, by the processor, the stream of images in the video signal to the set of gesture images; and
determining, by the processor, an image in the stream of images matches a gesture image of a gesture in the set of gesture images.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising sampling the video signal.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising forming a sequence of images from the sampling.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising associating the set of gesture images to an appliance.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising associating the gesture image to an appliance.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising associating the set of gesture images to an operation.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising associating the gesture image to an operation.
8. A system, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory storing code that when executed causes the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
receiving a video signal corresponding to a stream of images captured by a camera;
retrieving a set of gesture images;
comparing the stream of images in the video signal to the set of gesture images; and
determining an image in the stream of images matches a gesture image of a gesture in the set of gesture images.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise sampling the video signal.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise forming a sequence of images from the sampling.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise associating the set of gesture images to an appliance.
12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise associating the gesture image to an appliance.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise associating the set of gesture images to an operation.
14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise associating the gesture image to an operation.
15. A memory storing instructions that when executed cause a processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
receiving a video signal corresponding to a stream of images captured by a camera;
retrieving a set of gesture images from the memory;
comparing, by the processor, the stream of images in the video signal to the set of gesture images; and
determining an image in the stream of images matches a gesture image of a gesture in the set of gesture images.
16. The memory of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise sampling the video signal.
17. The memory of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise forming a sequence of images from the sampling.
18. The memory of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise associating the set of gesture images to an appliance.
19. The memory of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise associating the gesture image to an appliance.
20. The memory of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise associating the gesture image to an operation.
