%0 Journal Article %T Gesture tank: a gesture detection water vessel for foot movements %J International Journal on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions (ICTer) %D 2015 %R 10.4038/icter.v8i2.7163 %X Computers have become ubiquitous and integrated into our day-to-day activities. Researchers have been exploring mechanisms for interacting with computers using natural means in natural environments. Water interaction is a perfect example. This paper presents our attempt to use foot gestures performed in water as an interaction mechanism. It is an extension of our previous study for detecting objects in a water vessel. An experiment was performed to determine which foot-based gestures are suitable for implementation, and we proceeded to recognize a selected set of gestures using machine-learning techniques. We present our findings regarding which algorithms provide the best recognition rates %K Gesture Recognition %K 3D interaction %K Machine learning %U https://icter.sljol.info/articles/10.4038/icter.v8i2.7163/
