Webcam-Based Hand, Face and Body Tracking Solutions
GestureTek has transformed the way people interact with consumer electronic devices. Our pioneering, multi-patented 3D-vision image control system is a highly precise and reliable gesture-based user interface for interacting with any display screen. Whether on a personal computer, set top box, television set, mobile device, game console, digital sign or interactive kiosk, GestureTek's ground-breaking depth tracking software enables users to control onscreen interaction with simple hand motions instead of a remote control, keyboard or touch screen.
Lifelike 3D Virtual Reality Experiences
Our 3D gesture recognition software allows people to watch their video image or full-body 3D avatar while interacting in real time with computer-generated characters and objects. The system repeatedly and reliably tracks full-body movement and subtle gestures in complete 3D space. Resistant to distractions like background movement or variable lighting, the system locks onto the user and translates their unique movements into specific computer commands and events.
A Flexible Gesture Interface for Any Platform or Device
GestureTek leads the way to a fully gestural touch-free user interface for any platform or environment. Our software is compatible with any device enabled with a depth sensing camera. For consumer electronics companies worldwide, GestureTek offers device control through hand poses and gestures such as hand waves, finger counting and pointing. Our robust library of video gesture control patents and video capture, analysis and control commands are available for license. API's include full body analysis and motion tracking, along with feature-specific tracking such as face, hand, color, motion and object tracking.
New Dimensions in Man Machine Interface
GestureTek provides unlimited new user interface options for deploying 2D and 3D interactive experiences. Whether you are a developer or an original equipment manufacturer, integrating GestureTek's 3D image processing middleware into your next generation interactive solution will enable you to deliver the most advanced interactions possible between a user and the digital world.
Our 3D gesture control technology captures depth information surrounding a user's movements with unparalleled accuracy and resolution. Using depth sensing cameras, the system measures changes in positioning and distance between the various parts of a user's image and other elements within the scene, then displays lifelike 3D images onscreen. Users can interact with their real-time full-body 3D video image or onscreen 3D avatar, for the most lifelike 3Dvirtual reality experience imaginable.

Unlimited Practical Applications in Countless Sectors
Our proven success with avatars, interactive games and specific hand tracking interfaces is just the beginning. Along with factory automation, industrial design and military applications, here are a few other exciting applications of our 3D tracking technology:
3D avatar representation, where onscreen avatars respond directly to a user's movements as they provide instructions or deliver information.
Interactive advertising, where users can transport their 3D image right into the heart of an interactive digital sign or advertisement.
Virtual rehabilitation, where patients can watch their 3D image and see progression in range of motion as they move through therapeutic exercises.
Device control, where hand gestures are tracked and translated into common 'point and control' actions.
Immersive social networking, whereby a user's real-time 3D video image or their 3D avatar representation, is transported into a 3D virtual environment. Users can watch themselves as they interact in 3D space with images of other users all over the world.
Gestural platform interfaces, where computers can be controlled by using a combination of hand poses and gestures, including hand waves, finger counting and pointing.
