Abstract

Generally, users have controlled objects in a 3D virtual space by using a mouse and a keyboard. However, it is not easy to carry out actions in 3D virtual space through the devices since others could be used to communicate about some issues. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a system in which hand gestures of users can be used to control objects. In the proposed system, an object can be picked up through a specific hand gesture, and it can then be translated, rotated, and scaled in x, y, z directions according to the recognized hand gestures.
