VEHICLE RECOGNIZING USER GESTURE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

摘要

A vehicle is provided that is capable of preventing malfunction or inappropriate operation of the vehicle due to a passenger error by distinguishing a gesture of a driver from that of the passenger when a gesture of a user is recognized, and a method for controlling the same is provided. The vehicle includes an image capturing unit mounted inside the vehicle and configured to capture a gesture image of a gesture area including a gesture of a driver or a passenger. A controller is configured to detect an object of interest in the gesture image captured by the image capturing unit and determine whether the object of interest belongs to the driver. In addition, the controller is configured to recognize a gesture expressed by the object of interest and generate a control signal that corresponds to the gesture when the object of interest belongs to the driver.
