Summary:This review analyses the different gesture recognition systems through a timeline, showing the different types of technology, and specifying which are the most important features and their achieved recognition rates. At the end of the review, Leap Motion sensor possibilities are described in detail, in order to consider its application on the field of sign language. This device has many positive characteristics that make it a good option for sign language. One of the most important conclusions is the ability of the Leap Motion sensor to provide 3D information from the hands for due identification.
