Abstract: An efficient method for utilising a 2D camera to recognise hand gestures in 3D space is described. The work is presented within the context of a recuperation aid for younger children with impaired movement of the upper limbs on a standard Android tablet device. The hand movement recognition is achieved through attaching brightly coloured models to the child’s fingers, providing easily trackable elements of the image. The application promotes repeated use of specific hand skills identified by the medical profession to stimulate and assess rehabilitation of patients with impaired upper limb dexterity.
