....track position and orientation are still usually tethered to the machine by wires. Devices, such as pinch gloves, that permit the user to experience a more natural seeming interface often do not perform as well, and are less preferred with users, than simple handheld devices with buttons [9,19]. Pinch gloves carry assumptions about the position of the user s hand and fingers with respect to the tracker. Of course, users hands differ in size and shape, so the assumed tracker position must be recalibrated for each user. This is hardly ever done. Also, the glove interface causes ....

....done on two SGI R10000 O2s (one for each camera) which communicate with a display client on an SGI Onyx via sockets. For display on the Perceptive Workbench, we use the Simple Virtual Environment Toolkit (SVE) a graphics and sound library developed by the Georgia Tech Virtual Environments Group [9]. In addition, we use the workbench version of VGIS, a global terrain visualization and navigation system [13, 14] as an application for interaction using hand and arm gestures. 4. Object Recognition and Tracking As a basic building block for our interaction framework, we want to enable the user ....

....or on devices that the hands hold) are still usually attached by wires. Devices that permit one to make what would seem to be more natural hand gestures, such as pinch gloves, are often found to perform less well and to be less preferred by users than simple handheld devices with buttons [8, 18]. This may be due to the need to wear a glove, to the fact that pinch gestures are not recognized all the time, and to the subtle changes to recognized hand gestures caused by the glove interface. Further, all devices, whether gloves or handheld devices, carry assumptions about the position ....

....from shadows cast by the ceiling light sources, and recognition and quantification of hand and arm gestures. For display on the Perceptive Workbench, we use the Simple Virtual Environment Toolkit (SVE) a graphics and sound library developed by the Georgia Tech Virtual Environments Group. [8] SVE permits us to rapidly prototype applications used in this work. In addition we use the workbench version of VGIS, a global terrain visualization and navigation system [12, 13] as an application for interaction using hand and arm gestures. The workbench version of VGIS has stereoscopic ....
