Abstract
A method for providing hand segmentation for gesture analysis may include determining a target region based at least in part on depth range data corresponding to an intensity image. The intensity image may include data descriptive of a hand. The method may further include determining a point of interest of a hand portion of the target region, determining a shape corresponding to a palm region of the hand, and removing a selected portion of the target region to identify a portion of the target region corresponding to the hand. An apparatus and computer program product corresponding to the method are also provided.
