Touchless Interface for an Interactive Indoor Map

The purpose of this project was to answer if a touchless natural user interface (NUI) and hand motions provided a viable way of interacting with a 3D map. Based on research made on interfaces, gestures, and maps, the Final Problem Statement (FPS) was "To what extent will a NUI, controlled by quantitative hand gestures, serve as a viable way of interacting with a public 3D map?" Based on this FPS and the design requirements outlined in the report, a hand tracking system and an application were developed. Tests were performed to determine the validity of the system and the results point towards a somewhat neutral reception of the participants. The results generally showed, that our NUI and hand motions provided a viable way of interacting with a 3D map, to a limited extent above neutral. This leaves room for improvements to the different NUI elements, which could lead to making NUI a more viable way to control a 3D map with quantitative hand gestures.
