Abstract

Gesture recognition using cameras capable of capturing detailed images for gesture recognition is not feasible in many places due to concerns regarding privacy and information leakage. To address this problem, we have proposed a method of capturing shadow pictures using single-pixel-imaging to realize privacy-conscious gesture recognition. As an implementation method of single-pixel-imaging in public spaces, we have studied using a high-frame-rate LED display as a light source. By using a high-frame-rate LED display, random patterns can be latent while the observer perceives an apparent image. However, the image reconstructed by single-pixel-imaging using a high-frame-rate LED display is influenced by the apparent image, making gesture recognition difficult. In this study, we show that the influence of the apparent image can be removed by restoring the restored image using deep learning with a convolutional network called U-Net, and high classification accuracy with a small number of illuminations by using LeNet to classify restored images.
