1. A vehicle gesture recognition system, comprising:
- a data interface configured for receiving gesture data, the gesture data including an indicator indicating a gesture from a predefined set of gestures, the gesture data including gestures detected based on image data from a 2d sensor of a portable device; and
a portable device interface being configured for;
establishing a data connection between the portable device and the data interface, wherein the data interface is further configured for receiving the gesture data via the data connection from a portable device application executed on the portable device; and
a vehicle processing unit configured for controlling user interfacing with a user interface based on the gesture indicated by the gesture data.

Abstract
Embodiments of vehicle gesture recognition systems and methods are disclosed. An example vehicle gesture recognition system comprises a data interface configured for receiving 2d image data from a 2d sensor and/or from a portable device camera via a portable device interface. Additionally or alternatively, the data interface is configured for receiving gesture data indicating a gesture. A vehicle processing unit is configured for controlling user interfacing with a user interface based on the gestures recognized from the 2d image data and/or as indicated by the gesture data.
