Air Handwriting using AI and Ml

Air-writing refers to virtually writing linguistic characters through hand gestures in three dimensional space with six degrees of freedom. In this paper a generic video camera dependent convolutional neural network (CNN) based air-writing framework has been proposed. Gestures are performed using a marker of fixed color in front of a generic video camera followed by color based segmentation to identify the marker and track the trajectory of marker tip. A pre-trained CNN is then used to classify the gesture. The recognition accuracy is further improved using transfer learning with the newly acquired data. The performance of the system varies greatly on the illumi nation condition due to color based segmentation. In a less fluctuating illumination condition the system is able to recognize isolated unistroke numerals of multiple languages. The proposed framework achieved 97.7recognition rate in person inde pendent evaluation over English, Bengali and Devanagari numerals, respectively. Object tracking is considered as an important task within the field of Computer Vision. The invention of faster computers, availability of inexpensive and good quality video cameras and demands of automated video analysis has given popularity to object tracking techniques. Generally, video analysis procedure has three major steps: firstly, detecting of the object, secondly tracking its movement from frame to frame and lastly analysing the behaviour of that object. For object tracking, four different issues are taken into account; selection of suitable object representation, feature selection for tracking, object detection and object tracking. In real world, Object tracking algorithms are the primarily part of different applications such as: automatic surveillance, video indexing and vehicle navigation etc. The generated text can also be used for various purposes, such as sending messages, emails, etc. It will be a powerful means of communication for the deaf. It is an effective communication method that reduces mobile and laptop usage by eliminating the need to write.
