Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
When the hand exercise is completed, most of people are driven by muscles located on the forearms of the arms, and the muscles of the forearms are connected with the muscles of the hands through tendons at the wrists. When the palm of a hand is in different states, namely, when the hand performs different gestures, the state of tendons at the wrist is different, and the pressure on the wrist is different. Therefore, if pressure values given to the bracelet under different gestures of the wrist tendon of the user can be obtained, relevant change information can be extracted from the pressure values to serve as features, and the type of the gesture is determined through a relevant algorithm. Specifically, the embodiment of the present invention provides a gesture recognition method based on the pressure-related characteristics of the tendons of the wrist, as shown in fig. 1, the method mainly includes the following steps:
step 11, acquiring pressure value data acquired by N pressure sensors, and arranging the pressure value data according to a specific mode; each pressure sensor collects pressure data for a particular location on the user's wrist.
In the embodiment of the invention, each sensor can send out the corresponding digital signal according to the magnitude of the current pressure value, and the collected information of the N pressure sensors is transmitted outwards one by one in a polling mode.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the number of the pressure sensors may be 16, the arrangement is as shown in fig. 2, the positions where the pressure sensors 22 and 23 are placed (the pressure sensors 22 and 23 have no structural difference, but the positions are different and respectively represent the positions distributed at one end near the arm and the positions distributed at one end near the palm) need to take into account the influence of the wrist muscle 21, the wrist skeleton 24 and the wrist tendon 25, and meanwhile, when the gesture changes, the pressure change at the wrist tendon of the human hand is a change in a two-dimensional plane rather than a one-dimensional linear change. Therefore, the embodiment of the invention selects to arrange the pressure sensors in double rows, and the pressure sensors respectively correspond to the positions of the selected wrist tendons, and the variation condition of the wrist tendons is fitted according to the correlation condition of the pressure information among the sensors.
All pressure sensors are film pressure sensors, as shown in fig. 3, distributed on an insulating bracelet 32 with elasticity, and the pressure sensor 33 is supported by using a silica gel pad 31, and the pressure sensor 33 is supported by using the silica gel pad 31 to be just attached to the wrist skin of the user.
And step 12, calculating time-based correlation information and space-based correlation information of the pressure change condition of the wrist tendon of the user when the gesture changes according to the arranged N pressure value data, and taking the time-based correlation information and the space-based correlation information as feature information to be recognized.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the time-based correlation information of the pressure change condition includes: dividing the variance of the pressure values of the current pressure sensor when the gesture changes by the mean value of the pressure values, and taking the result as the intensity of the pressure change of the position corresponding to the current pressure sensor under the condition of the gesture change; the mean of the first order differences of the pressure value data characterizes the trend of the pressure change.
The spatial correlation information of the pressure change condition comprises: and a covariance matrix of a time correlation matrix between every two pressure sensors represents the spatial correlation of the pressure of a specific position of the wrist when the gesture changes.
And step 13, analyzing and judging the gesture type most matched with the characteristic information to be recognized by using a machine learning method according to the corresponding relation between the preset characteristic information and the gesture type, thereby completing gesture recognition.
Since the physiological conditions of the user group such as sex, age, weight and the like are different, and the thickness of the wrist and the position of the pressure to be measured are different, in order to obtain higher accuracy of gesture recognition, the method also comprises the process of collecting standard gesture characteristic information (namely preset characteristic information) of the user and the recording step:
1. the user finishes wearing the bracelet according to the self condition.
2. And the user makes gesture actions required by the system according to the system prompt.
3. The system completes the collection of pressure data when the user completes the gesture action.
4. The system extracts characteristic information from the acquired pressure data and stores the corresponding relation between the characteristic information and the gesture type.
For example, the method of machine learning is currently best performed by the K-nearest neighbor method, and the methods used include, but are not limited to, a perceptron, a support vector machine, and the like.
And 14, triggering a corresponding control function according to the gesture recognition result.
The control function is realized through a control module, the control module can be an intelligent home system, and the following control functions can be triggered according to a gesture recognition result:
if the identification result is that the thumb is bent, controlling to close the lighting equipment in the living room;
if the recognition result is that the index finger is bent, controlling to close the lighting equipment of the study room;
