Abstract

This paper presents a vision based human machine interface (HMI) for the Xbox. It applies feature tracking algorithms to recognize user's head gestures and translates them into commands for the game. The pyramidal implementation of Lucas Kanade feature tracking is used to trace the optical flows in a sequence of frames. The experimental results show the feasibility of the proposed vision based interface, which has reasonable performance comparing with the standard game pad.
