GESTURE INPUT DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING GESTURE INPUT DEVICE

摘要

In order to prevent unintended user actions from being misrecognized as valid gestures, this gesture input device (1), which controls a control subject device (3) on the basis of user gestures, is equipped with: a determination gesture assessment unit (32) that assesses whether a determination gesture is included in the gestures detected from an image photographed with a camera (2); an operation gesture assessment unit (34) that assesses whether an operation gesture is included in the gestures detected from the image photographed with the camera (2); and a device control unit (23), which generates control signals corresponding to operation gestures that have been assessed by the operation gesture assessment unit as being included during a determination gesture recognition period, and which transmits the generated control signals to the control subject device (3).
