Virtual Block Augmented Reality Game Using Freehand Gesture Interaction

Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) manages to bring a virtual environment into a real-world environment seamlessly. As AR has been recognised as advancing technology, AR brings future changes to the learning process. The goal of this study is to use freehand gestures to create a virtual block game in AR. First of all, the stages of this study are to explore block games and freehand movements by using Leap Motion. Secondly, the design and development of Leap Motion virtual block games, and thirdly, the implementation of free-hand gesture interaction virtual block games. The paper explains about virtual blocks AR game using freehand gesture. AR tracking system with real hand gesture recognition system is merged to execute the freehand gesture. A prototype virtual block has been described in this paper. The paper ends with the conclusion and future works.
