Method and apparatus for processing image

摘要

A method and apparatus for processing an image, whereby a 3-dimensional (3D) hand model corresponding to a hand image obtained may be generated by capturing an image of a hand of a person are provided. The method includes preparing a 3D hand model database, receiving a 2-dimensional (2D) hand image obtained by capturing an image of a first hand, and detecting a first 3D hand model corresponding to the 2D hand image by using the 3D hand model database.
