Gesture Control Home Automation System

Controlling the home appliances and electronics gadgets through an infrared remote control is now in general. But the same controlling tasks can be done more easily. Primary motive of proposing the new system of hand gesture remote control home automation system is to remove the need to look into the hand held remote and to search for a specific key for specific function. This abstract presents a small introduction to control home appliances through hand gestures are remote control device. The system will refer to as gesture control home automation system. It uses real time image processing for gesture recognition in infrared vision using embedded system and development board, microcontroller based. This abstract proposes a possible solution to control the gadgets for physically challenged and blind people, also for everyone. As we know the technology changing, we must go hand in hand with it, and explore more about it. Gesture recognition solutions can be divided regard to the type of gesture used for controlling a computer. Gesture can be considered as a change of the hand position (hand movement) in a particular time interval with a given velocity or as a change of the hand shape (forming ellipse with thumb and the index finger).Gesture that belong to the first group are typically called dynamic gestures while there from the second group are often referred to as static gesture. Second type of gesture can be a sign or a symbol given to a cell phone, like we have to give an indication of say 1, 2, 3 like that also known as online gesture.
