Abstract (EN): This paper presents two approaches used to control a 2-axis servomechanism by gesture recognition. For both approaches, the adopted control philosophy was: In the system's learning phase, the control images are acquired by a generic webcam and associated to the desired orders. On the other hand, in the working phase, each control image is acquired, by the same webcam and, by comparison with the stored orders images, the desired order is recognized and processed by the servomechanism in quasi real time. In this paper, the used servomechanism and both implemented approaches are described, and are indicated some advantages and weakness of each one. Two examples of images control sets are also presented, and some conclusions and future works are addressed.
