Summary:Hand gestures are the most common forms of communication and have great importance in our world. They can help in building safe and comfortable user interfaces for a multitude of applications. Various computer vision algorithms have employed color and depth camera for hand gesture recognition, but robust classification of gestures from different subjects is still challenging. I propose an algorithm for real-time hand gesture recognition using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The proposed CNN achieves an average accuracy of 98.76% on the dataset comprising of 9 hand gestures and 500 images for each gesture.
