  • Gesture recognition systems and methods for facilitating touchless user interaction with a user interface of a computer system
    Patent number: 11966515
    Abstract: An exemplary method includes a gesture recognition system determining, based on imagery of a user while the user touchlessly interacts with a user interface of a computer system, a configuration of a plurality of landmarks associated with the user and comparing the configuration of the plurality of landmarks to defined landmark configurations associated with a plurality of defined gestures. Each of the plurality of defined gestures may be associated with a different user input enterable by way of the user interface of the computer system. The method may further include the gesture recognition system selecting, based on the comparing of the configuration of the plurality of landmarks to the defined landmark configurations associated with the plurality of defined gestures, a defined gesture included in the plurality of defined gestures, and directing the computer system to enter a user input that is associated with the defined gesture.
