Abstract: With taking self-portraits users can capture memories, create art, and advance their photography skills. However, most existing camera interfaces are limited in that they do not support device-less remote control, and real-time control over important camera functions, etc. In this paper, a new self-portrait camera system is described and a gesture interface for self-portraits is developed. This self-portrait camera system supports a rotatable front lens and a motion-based gesture interface to control camera functions including the shutter trigger, color balance, and exposure. The gesture-recognition accuracy is experimentally evaluated and the effectiveness of the system is examined in a user study. The results suggest that the proposed gesture recognition technique achieves 85% accuracy, and the gesture-based interface is effective for controlling self-portrait camera options and improves the user experience when taking self-portraits.
