1. A gesture recognition apparatus comprising:
- a temperature sensor in which a plurality of infrared sensors are arranged;
a change region specifying unit that specifies a change region where a temperature change is generated as a region indicating a hand based on a temperature detected by each infrared sensor of the temperature sensor; and
a gesture recognition unit that specifies a movement locus of the change region specified by the change region specifying unit and recognizes a gesture of the hand.

7. A gesture recognition method comprising the steps of:
-
acquiring a temperature at each of a plurality of infrared sensors from a temperature sensor in which the infrared sensors are arranged; specifying a change region where a temperature change is generated as a region indicating a hand based on the temperature detected by each infrared sensor; and specifying a movement locus of the specified change region to recognize a gesture of the hand.
