The device consists of a wearable embedded computer with a camera and a pair of gloves. The system captures the hand-gesture images, extracts features from the gloves, and runs an Artificial Neural Network as a classifier. Our system achieves an average precision of 88% and an average recall of 90% on 20 signals.]]></p></abstract>
