Abstract:Hand tracking in unconstrained environments remains an extremely challenging problem due to several factors, such as background clutter, deformation, and motion blur. In this paper, we combine motion, color, and Haar-like features to construct a real-time and robust hand tracking system. Haar-like features successfully defeat moving skin-colored backgrounds, although they are unstable for the whole situation. Three weak trackers are built using each kind of feature and integrated in a boosted cascade. If one stage makes sure of the object position, no other stages is carried out. Otherwise it provides its own point of view to guide the next stage. We realize the proposed approach and demonstrate it on several challenging sequences.
