A Usability Study on Hand Gesture Controlled Operation of In-Car Devices

Abstract

The aim of this study is to find out if hand gestures can reasonably be used to control in-car devices. Therefore, a set of consistent gestures which allow intuitive human machine interaction is searched. The results show a consistent gesture vocabulary for a variety of devices. Since this study is extremely dependent on its environment, in this paper mainly the methodology is described whereas about the results only a short overview is given. 1.
