Abstract(in English) This paper presents a real time gesture recognition method for interactive systems which can perform an interaction like a human communication. This method recognizes a user's gesture using the eigenspace constituted from multi input image sequences. This eigenspace represents an approximate 3 dimensional information of gesture, so that complicated gestures which may have a self-occlusion and confusion in a single input image can be recognized correctly. Moreover, our method is suitable for obtaining the gesture's degree information, such as speed and magnitude. Using our method, we realize a real time interactive system, the Virtual Conductor System, which can control music played by a computer using gesture recognition results and indicates the usefulness of our method.
