This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I research project aims to explore the technique of combining feature matching methods with hand gesture recognition technologies to reliably identify typing fingers. This is a novel, unique technical approach that can lead to more robust solutions for gesture recognition in many applications, such as improved human computer interface (HCI) for gaming or mobile computing. For example, it provides a natural and better way for interacting with computer games or some virtual applications by allowing users to grab objects or execute commands using various fingers. Furthermore, this could enable users to input text by 'typing on air'.The broader impacts of this research lie in its potential to overcome the barrier of efficient and productive text entry on mobile devices. With mobile devices becoming more pervasive, it is important that Inputting text to small devices not be burden to the user. Efficient mobile input could translate into greater mobile application usage and new, differentiated offerings from OEMs and carriers that result in significant improvements in revenues. In summary, improved text entry capabilities will lead to a greater adoption of mobile computing in general.

该小型企业创新研究 (SBIR) 第一阶段研究项目旨在探索将特征匹配方法与手势识别技术相结合的技术，以可靠地识别打字手指。这是一种新颖、独特的技术方法，可以在许多应用中带来更强大的手势识别解决方案，例如用于游戏或移动计算的改进的人机界面（HCI）。例如，它允许用户使用各种手指抓取对象或执行命令，从而提供了一种自然且更好的与计算机游戏或某些虚拟应用程序交互的方式。此外，这可以使用户通过“空中打字”来输入文本。这项研究的更广泛影响在于它有可能克服移动设备上高效且富有成效的文本输入的障碍。随着移动设备变得越来越普遍，向小型设备输入文本不会给用户带来负担，这一点很重要。高效的移动输入可以转化为更多的移动应用程序使用以及原始设备制造商和运营商提供的新的差异化产品，从而显着提高收入。总之，改进的文本输入功能将导致移动计算的广泛采用。
