Southern Africa Telecommunication Networks and Applications Conference (SATNAC 2009), Royal Swazi Spa, Ezulwini, Swaziland, 363-366http://hdl.handle.net/10566/63This paper discusses an implementation for gesture recognition using eigenvectors under controlled conditions. This application of eigenvector recognition is trained on a set of defined hand images. Training images are processed using eigen techniques from the OpenCV image processing library. Test images are then compared in real-time. These techniques are outlined below.enThis file may be freely used for educational purposes, as long as it is not altered in any way.
