This Project is confined to identification of hand postures and to establish a man-machine interaction. The hand region in the image is detected and the number of active fingers is determined. In this approach, the input which is an image or a frame a video can be obtained web camera or any other camera. This color image is converted into binary image and preprocessed and the number of fingers is counted using scanning method in MATLAB. This is a simple yet efficient approach. The main reason to employ scanning method is to make the code to recognize the finger count independent of size and rotation of the hand.
