Types of Gestures

Gestures are movements made by the body to convey a message or emotion.

In the context of gesture recognition, there are several types of gestures:

  • Hand Gestures: These are gestures made with the hands, such as waving, pointing, or making a fist.
  • Facial Gestures: These are gestures made with the face, such as smiling, frowning, or raising an eyebrow.
  • Body Gestures: These are gestures made with the body, such as leaning forward, crossing arms, or shrugging.
  • Eye Gestures: These are gestures made with the eyes, such as winking, blinking, or rolling the eyes.
  • Head Gestures: These are gestures made with the head, such as nodding, shaking, or tilting.

Understanding these different types of gestures is important for developing effective gesture recognition systems.
