Studies of AR Drone on Gesture Control

Research output: Chapters, Conference Papers, Creative and Literary Works › RGC 32 - Refereed conference paper (with host publication) › peer-review

Abstract

This paper focuses on the recent drone and gesture recognition technology, and we try to apply the gesture recognition technology to a drone platform. Thus, a drone system capable of gesture-controlled navigation is implemented. The major components comprising the system are Parrot AR. Drone [1], Kinect [2] and PC, while LabVIEW [3, 4] is chosen as the programming language and Kinect is utilized as the gesture recognition device. Besides, specific methods are discussed about how to properly design gestures easy for manipulating the AR. Drone, and how to generate the control signals from these gestures. As a result, the response of gesture-based flight control system is accurate and prompt, according to its decent performance in the video [5].
