    <p>I have been working on a basic hand/finger tracking code using OpenCV and the ConvexHull and ConvexityDefects method. </p> <p>Basically I am able to create a contour of the hand. I now need to be able to count the number of fingers. I know that the start and the end points of the Convex Hull are the finger tips but I am unsure how to count them and also how to highlight them by drawing circles on them or something. </p> <p>I want my code to perform something like <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGpTE1RkEvQ" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a>. </p> <p>This is a sample part of my code so far: </p> <pre><code>cvFindContours( hsv_mask, storage, &amp;contours, sizeof(CvContour), CV_RETR_LIST, CV_CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE, cvPoint(0,0) ); CvSeq* contours2 = NULL; CvRect rect = cvBoundingRect( contours2, 0 ); cvRectangle( bitImage, cvPoint(rect.x, rect.y + rect.height), cvPoint(rect.x + rect.width, rect.y), CV_RGB(200, 0, 200), 1, 8, 0 ); CvSeq* hull = cvConvexHull2( contours2, 0, CV_CLOCKWISE, 0 ); CvSeq* defect = cvConvexityDefects( contours2, hull, dftStorage ); CvBox2D box = cvMinAreaRect2( contours2, minStorage ); cvDrawContours( bg, contours2, CV_RGB( 0, 200, 0), CV_RGB( 0, 100, 0), 1, 1, 8, cvPoint(0,0)); </code></pre> <p>I have played around with it and I can now draw the fingertip points using this code </p> <pre><code>for(;defect;defect = defect-&gt;h_next) { int nomdef = defect-&gt;total; if(nomdef == 0) continue; defectArray = (CvConvexityDefect*)malloc(sizeof(CvConvexityDefect)*nomdef); cvCvtSeqToArray (defect, defectArray, CV_WHOLE_SEQ); for(i=0; i&lt;nomdef;&gt; { cvCircle( bg, *(defectArray[i].end), 5, CV_RGB(255,0,0), -1, 8,0); cvCircle( bg, *(defectArray[i].start), 5, CV_RGB(0,0,255), -1, 8,0); cvCircle( bg, *(defectArray[i].depth_point), 5, CV_RGB(0,255,255), -1, 8,0); } j++; free(defectArray); } </code></pre> <p>However I am still getting a lot of false positives. Also if anyone could suggest any methods to now count the fingers that would be wonderful.</p>

    1. COCould you show some images resulting from running the code you have?

    2. COAlso, have you come across [this question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6806637/convexity-defects-c-opencv) which processes a convex hull to return defects as a vector of points? I guess you would then need to process these points to extract the fingertips from the other end of the hull. This will depend on how the image actually appears, perhaps the hull extends to the image edge and you could ignore points near the edge?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
