Abstract

Motion tracking has generated interest in field of computer vision because it has wide range of potential applications. In this paper, we investigate the motion tracking for solat movement which is unexplored area, by using dual Kinect sensors from Microsoft Corporation. Solat in Islam is a part of communication with Allah SWT to fulfil the purpose of human creation and existence. Current technology and knowledge in Human Computer Interaction can improve the relationship between human and God by performing solat perfectly with the assist of computer. To achieve the goal, two Kinect sensors are placed at a pre-defined position and angle to obtain multiple views in single space. The system gets the skeleton information from Kinect Software Development Kit. From the skeleton information provided, the important joint that has significant movement during Solat activity have been selected for the training and testing process. All the movements recorded have been classified using Hidden Markov Model function and stored into database. The system was tested against the trained database and reliable accuracy was recorded. The outcome from this investigation, a new frontier way of learning in Solat can be developed.
