Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for gesture recognition are disclosed. The systems include, for example, at least one processor that is configured to receive at least one image from at least one image sensor. The processor may also be configured to detect, in the image, data corresponding to an anatomical structure of a user. The processor may also be configured to identify, in the image, information corresponding to a suspected hand gesture by the user. In addition, the processor may also be configured to discount the information corresponding to the suspected hand gesture if the data corresponding to the anatomical structure of the user is not identified in the image.
