Hands-Free Manipulation of Virtual Structures

成员: Dr. Maria Javaid and Trenton Hasty

文摘: This research work involves the survey of existing technology utilizing which an application to monitor hand movements can be developed. Our aim is to sense the motion and rotation of hand in 3-D. The motivation for this research is to improve the realism and ease in the use of interactive 3-D educational game (ToothPIC) developed by the faculty mentor of this research. Many educational and recreational games require manipulation 虚拟结构. Such manipulations involve mouse movement and mouse clicks of control panel buttons we aim to replace that with natural hand movements.
