Gesture Recognition

1. Gesture Recognition Instructions

  1. This example uses gesture recognition based on Baidu Smart Cloud platform services. This service provides 50,000 free uses per day for learning purposes only. Do not use for commercial purposes. If you need long-term use, please purchase the relevant services. Our company is not responsible for any issues.
  2. API Application Instructions. Official API address reference: https://cloud.baidu.com/doc/BODY/s/ajwvxyyn0. After opening the official API address in a browser, log in with your Baidu account in the upper right corner. If you don't have a Baidu account, please register first.

  1. After logging in, click 'Products' - 'Artificial Intelligence' - 'Face and Body Recognition' - 'Body Analysis' on the menu bar.

  1. Click 'Gesture Recognition' in the product list.

  1. Click Use Now

  1. Next, you will automatically enter the Body Analysis backend management. Click Create Application.

  1. After filling in the relevant information, click Create Now. After creation is complete, click the application list to see the information of the newly created application. At this time, copy and save the information under AppID, API Key and Secret Key.

Note: You need to claim the free recognition quota here. When claiming, you can select all functions

  1. Supported gestures and example images for gesture recognition:

  1. API Functions
from aip import AipBodyAnalysis
""" Your APPID AK SK """
APP_ID = 'Your App ID'
API_KEY = 'Your Api Key'
SECRET_KEY = 'Your Secret Key'
client = AipBodyAnalysis(APP_ID, API_KEY, SECRET_KEY)
""" Read image """
def get_file_content(filePath):
with open(filePath, 'rb') as fp:
return fp.read()
image = get_file_content('example.jpg')
""" Call gesture recognition """
Res = client.gesture(image);

"probability": 0.4679304957389832,
"top": 157,
"height": 106,
"classname": "Heart_2",
"width": 177,
"left": 183
}
}

2. Main Code

  • Start Docker

After entering the main board desktop, open the terminal and run the following command to start the corresponding Dofbot container:

xxxxxxxxxx
./Docker_Ros.sh

Then enter the following command in the docker terminal to start jupyter-lab,

xxxxxxxxxx
cd
jupyter-lab --allow-root

Then enter the main board's IP address plus :9999 in the browser

xxxxxxxxxx
IP:9999         // Example: 192.168.1.11:9999

Code path: /root/Dofbot/6.AI_Visuall/4.Gesture recognition.ipynb

Import Baidu API, importantly need to change the secret key to the one you applied for.
