Analysis of Gesture Based Control System in Infotainment of Hybrid Car Using Internet of Things

Using numerous devices while driving causes drivers to lose focus on the road, contributing to accidents in about one-third of cases. To address this issue, significant research is focused on developing interfaces between humans and machines that enable drivers to control automobile electronics without becoming distracted. This research study presents a complete system that enables control of infotainment systems through hand gestures. The proposed system utilizes the car's roof is equipped with a visible-infrared camera that focuses on the shift stick area and integrates both new and algorithms for computer vision. Using a real car and a car simulator, 23 individuals participated in the testing. According to the findings, people marginally prefer this gesture-based method over the touch-screen interface is similar.
