GESTURE RECOGNITION SYSTEM AND GESTURE RECOGNITION METHOD

A gesture recognition system comprises: a signal collection terminal, configured to collect and preprocess gesture data of a gesture object; a local recognition device, configured to extract features from the gesture data received from the signal collection terminal, form a multi-dimensional feature vector based on extracted features, establish local gesture models based on the multi-dimensional feature vector and perform local gesture recognition according to the local gesture models; and a cloud server, configured to receive the multi-dimensional feature vector from the local recognition device when there is a network connection between the local recognition device and the cloud server, establish cloud gesture models based on the received multi-dimensional feature vector and perform cloud gesture recognition according to the cloud gesture models. A gesture recognition method is also disclosed.
