Brief Paper: Combining Object Detection and Hand Gesture Recognition for Automatic Lighting System Control

Recently, smart lighting systems are the combination between sensors and lights.These systems turn on/off and adjust the brightness of lights based on the motion of object and the brightness of environment.These systems are often applied in places such as buildings, rooms, garages and parking lot.However, these lighting systems are controlled by lighting sensors, motion sensors based on illumination environment and motion detection.In this paper, we propose an automatic lighting control system using one single camera for buildings, rooms and garages.The proposed system is one integration the results of digital image processing as motion detection, hand gesture detection to control and dim the lighting system.The experimental results showed that the proposed system work very well and could consider to apply for automatic lighting spaces.
