Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for improving hand input detection in a virtual environment based on small and/or rapid hand inputs. For instance, a hybrid hand input detection system can utilize a hybrid hand input model that incorporates a machine-learning hand pose model with an optical flow network to recognize fine degrees of hand movement corresponding to input commands within a virtual environment. In this manner, the hybrid hand input detection system can utilize a hybrid hand input model to recognize small and rapid hand inputs in virtual reality or augmented reality without requiring a physical input device.
