A gesture recognition system using a flexible epidermal tactile sensor based on artificial neural network

In this paper, we propose a gesture recognition system using a flexible epidermal tactile sensor by using Artificial Neural Network (ANN). We define five different hand motions and obtain those five hand gestures by using Flexible Epidermal Tactile Sensor. Artificial Neural Network is applied to classify the gestures. The result shows our system has a better performance than the conventional machine learning algorithms like SVM etc. in the recognition rate.
