Sterility restrictions in surgical settings make touch-less interaction an interesting solution for surgeons to interact directly with digital images. In this project, that I did during my research visit at ETH Zurich, we developed a system for gesture-based interaction with medical images based on a single wristband sensor (ETHOS) and capacitive floor sensors, allowing for hand and foot gesture input.
