Is there any standard gestures available for kinect?

Question

I want to know that is there any standards for defining gestures using Kinect for windows SDK
or any gestures available with the non-commercial kinect SDK

Answer 1

No there isn't. You'll have to program them yourself by using math. There are libraries though that offer gesture recognition like OpenKinect if I'm not wrong.

Coding4Fun offers a library that makes life easier - http://channel9.msdn.com/coding4fun/kinect/Coding4Fun-Kinect-Toolkit-v15-for-v1

Answer 2

I have just released a gesture recording and matching library for .NET that uses the Kinect for Windows SDK. GesturePak ($99) lets you create your own gestures by posing, and then test and tweak them. A .NET API lets you load the gestures and notifies you via an event (or polling) that one or more of your gestures was performed.

Answer 3

There are a number of third party projects that provide gesture recording that saves to a file. You then use the reading component in your project to recognize the gesture.

Answer 4

This guys offer Gesture Authoring Tool to define gestures by recording people performing the movement. It's free for non commercial uses

They say it also supports Kinect (not with Kinect SDK but with their own). I tried it with an Asus Xation camera and it worked great.
