Hands and Faces, Fast: Mono-Camera User Detection Robust Enough to Directly Control a UAV in Flight

IROS 2018poster

We present a robust real-time system for simultaneous detection of hands and faces in RGB and gray-scale images, and a novel dataset used for training. Our goal is to provide a robust sensor front-end suitable for real-time human-robot interaction using face-engagement and gestures. Using hand-label…
