Abstract

This paper describes a HCI system for the control of home appliance which is focused on human friendliness. This system utilizes two USB cameras to enable a user to select home appliance easily by hand pointing gesture. We propose two different methods of storing the three dimensional position of home appliance by user. Home appliance selection method and feedback for user's wrong pointing direction are also described in this paper. Because of the low cost installation, simple operation and interactive feedback, our proposed system enhances the usability and human-friendliness.
