Toshiba has developed technologies for hand gesture
recognition and video indexing taking advantage of the
powerful video processing performance of our SE1000
Quad Core HD Processor.
The hand gesture recognition technology detects three
types of shapes of the user’s hand (upper figure) in video
images captured by a camera mounted on a PC. This
technology makes it possible to control applications on
the PC by hand gestures without the need for a mouse or a
keyboard.
The video indexing technology detects faces, shouts,
handclaps, commercials, music, and corner changes in
recorded videos. Such information provides users with a
novel way of watching videos by accessing favorite scenes
using an overview of the videos such as thumbnails of the faces (lower figure).
