ToF camera for automotive gesture recognition

With the continuous promotion of touch screen technology, users have adapted and gradually become familiar with the interaction with the machine. Now, human-computer interaction technology has reached a higher level and entered the era of gesture recognition. With the continuous in-depth development of gesture recognition technology to support human-computer interaction, and the emergence of 3D sensor technology, its applications have become increasingly widespread and diversified. In terms of safe driving of automobiles, traditional human-computer interaction technology requires users to interact with the vehicle through buttons, so that the driver has to divert his sight from the road ahead and occupy at least one hand for touch input, leading to dangerous "blind" driving. The traffic accident rate may increase due to touch input while driving; in contrast, gesture interaction only requires the driver to make gestures naturally, and the feedback of the vehicle can be obtained without diverting attention, which is based on natural human-computer interaction. The technical safety driving assistance system makes all driving operations comply with the safe driving principle of "hands and eyes in the same direction", which greatly guarantees driving safety. In order to solve the problem of driving safety in traditional car touch buttons, ToF camera can be used for gesture recognition control system. A control system based on ToF camera gesture recognition, which includes an image recognition module, an image processing module, a ToF camera control module, etc., which can be conveniently applied to automatic driving.
