NASA Glove Box Project

About the NASA Glove Box Project:

NASA Virtual GloveBoX (VGX) is a few-years research project with the main goal to create a state-of-the-art non-obtrusive Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) system that would detect the position of human hands and recreate that exact position in a virtual environment.

Many novel algorithms were developed in connection with this research (see Publications).

Accomplishments on this project:
As a lead programmer on the project, I created the software for a realistic 3D Virtual Hand Model. This model preserves the natural hand kinematics and degrees of freedom. In addition, the software uses few threads to provide instant UI feedback and adjust the rendering frame rate to the video capture frame rate while offsetting the processing time  (described in thesis).

A fast motion detection algorithm was developed for this project (described in thesis).
