Control method and device based on gesture recognition and air conditioner

Abstract

The invention relates to a control method and device based on gesture recognition and an air conditioner. The control method comprises the following steps: obtaining a gesture image; extracting gesture information in the gesture image; carrying out pre-stored gesture model searching and comparison according to the gesture information to obtain a matched gesture model; and controlling a device to be controlled according to a control command corresponding to the matched gesture model, wherein the gesture information comprises the number of stretched fingers and / or direction of fingers, and / or direction of the back of a hand. The method can realize gesture recognition with the number and direction of the fingers or palm direction of the hand being served as gesture judgment parameters, and can carry out recognition in a pattern manner without judgment of a lot of tracks, thereby greatly reducing gesture recognition complexity, and improving gesture recognition efficiency. The provided control device and the air conditioner comprising the device also have the advantages above.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of equipment control, in particular to a control method, device and air conditioner based on gesture recognition. Background technique [0002] In the context of Industry 4.0, the development of machine vision in the industry is advancing by leaps and bounds. Gesture recognition occupies a large proportion in the field of machine vision and is very important. Because gestures are the most convenient and natural way for people and machines to communicate. Traditional control methods can no longer meet the user's more intuitive, convenient and natural requirements. This is especially true in the control of air conditioners, where there is a strong demand for gesture control. [0003] However, motion trajectories are generally used as the control method for controlling gestures, which requires a large amount of calculation for controlling gesture recognition and low efficiency of gesture matching.
