It is so easy to get caught up in the fun side of hand gesture control. The way it has
changed how you interact with the devices in your home and when you travel is
something that you see everyday. But for others, the development of motion recognition has changed their
lives entirely. Handicapped people the world over are interacting with
artificial limbs, wheelchairs and even computers in a way that opens up the
world to them. This is one of the best side effects of working in mobile gesture.
While many people think of the Xbox and the Wii when they
think of hand gesture control,
others are using it to be able to move around their homes or town. There are
infinite tools now available to various levels of handicapped people that give
them an opportunity to live more independently. These types of robotic
advancements give these individuals a sense of freedom that has long been
missing in their lives.
Artificial limbs have always been quite limited. There has
not been a proper shoulder or wrist made before because the range of motion control is
too great. Now that motion control is advancing, it is believed there is going
to be a way to offer amputees full range of motion in a way never thought of
before. The slightest movements could signal an arm to do a variety of things.
The user would no longer be limited to extreme motion and certain directions.
This could make them fully functional again.
This technology is even changing the way surgeons work. One
of the biggest complaints with some of the computerized systems was that
surgeons prefer the hands on approach. It is better for the patient’s recovery
to not be cut open. The detail these machines can accomplish with motion
technology allows them to perform intricate tasks from outside the body. Only a
small hole is necessary and the machine can do the rest with the guidance of
the doctor. This is something that saves lives, saves time and reduces the
medical costs and recovery time for the patients.
