Gesture recognition control device

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions encoded thereon that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to:

• receive one or more first images from an image sensor;
• process the one or more first images to detect a first position of an object;
• define a first region in relation to the position of the object;
• define a second region in relation to the first region;
• receive one or more second images from the image sensor;
• process, by the processing device, the one or more second images to detect a transition of the object from the first region to the second region;
• receive one or more third images from the image sensor;
• process the one or more third images to detect a transition of the object from the second region to the first region;
• and
• provide a command that corresponds to the transition of the object from the second region to the first region.

A method comprising:

• receiving one or more first images from an image sensor;
• processing the one or more first images to detect a first position of an object, the object comprising one or more fingers detected in relation to a face;
• defining a first region in relation to the position of the object;
• defining a second region in relation to the first region;
• receiving one or more second images from the image sensor;
• processing, by a processing device, the one or more second images to detect a transition of the object from the first region to the second region;
• determining a first command associated with a device and that corresponds to the transition of the object from the first region to the second region;
• and
• providing the determined first command to the device.
