:::
Based on the game's impact, the process logic of this game is organized as depicted in the figure below:
As depicted in the image above, the purpose of this game is to capture an image using the camera. Preprocess it by converting its color space for easier identification. Extract feature points corresponding to hand gestures from the converted image. Determine different gestures (based on angles) through logical analysis of key feature points. Next, the trajectory of the recognized gesture is drawn on the live camera feed.
The program's logic flowchart extracted from the program files is illustrated in the figure below.
From the above diagram, it can be seen that the program's logical flow is mainly divided into initialization functions and recognition processing functions. The following document content will be written according to the program logic flow chart mentioned above.
**(1) Initialization function (init\_\_(self, name))**
The program starts with the initialization function of the `HandTrajectoryNode` class, which defines some basic parameters. The important ones include the drawing object for drawing the hand landmarks and the hand detector for detecting the hand landmarks.
**(2) Define image drawing (self.drawing)**
{lineno-start=121}
```bash
self.drawing = mp.solutions.drawing_utils
```
`self.drawing` is the drawing tool for the joint key points. It is used to connect the detected key points and visualize the hand trajectory. "**mp**" represents the mediapipe recognition module, which extracts the hand features. The "**drawing_utils**" package from mediapipe is used for drawing the hand landmarks.
**(3) Define detector for recognizing hand feature (self.hand_detector)**
{lineno-start=123}
```python
self.hand_detector = mp.solutions.hands.Hands(
static_image_mode=False,
max_num_hands=1,
min_tracking_confidence=0.05,
min_detection_confidence=0.6
)
```
`self.hand_detector` is the hand feature detector. `mp` represents the mediapipe recognition module. `hands.Hands` is the hand feature extraction module. The following parameters are important:
| static_image_mode | When the parameter is set to False, it will locate the maximum number of hands based on the value set by "**max_num_hands**". By default, this parameter is set to False. |
| max_num_hands | Set the maximum number of hands to be detected, which is 1 by default. |
| min_detection_confidence | The minimum confidence threshold for the hand detection model ranges between 0 and 1. Only hands with confidence scores higher than this threshold will be detected. If the recognition performance is not optimal, you can adjust the threshold by ±0.1. However, it should not be set lower than 0. |
| min_tracking_confidence | This parameter is used for hand tracking and localization. It sets the minimum confidence threshold for the hand detection model to recognize and track a hand. If the confidence level of a detected hand falls below this threshold, it will be considered stationary and not tracked. If the recognition performance is not optimal, you can adjust the threshold by ±0.1. It should not be set lower than 0. |
**(9) Detect gesture feature**
{lineno-start=55}
```python
def h_gesture(angle_list):

"""
thr_angle = 65.
thr_angle_thumb = 53.
thr_angle_s = 49.
gesture_str = "none"
if (angle_list[0] > thr_angle_thumb) and (angle_list[1] > thr_angle) and (angle_list[2] > thr_angle) and (
angle_list[3] > thr_angle) and (angle_list[4] > thr_angle):

gesture_str = "two"
elif (angle_list[0] > thr_angle_thumb) and (angle_list[1] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[2] < thr_angle_s) and (
angle_list[3] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[4] > thr_angle):
gesture_str = "three"
elif (angle_list[0] > thr_angle_thumb) and (angle_list[1] > thr_angle) and (angle_list[2] < thr_angle_s) and (
angle_list[3] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[4] < thr_angle_s):
gesture_str = "OK"
elif (angle_list[0] > thr_angle_thumb) and (angle_list[1] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[2] < thr_angle_s) and (
angle_list[3] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[4] < thr_angle_s):
gesture_str = "four"
elif (angle_list[0] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[1] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[2] < thr_angle_s) and (
angle_list[3] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[4] < thr_angle_s):
gesture_str = "five"
elif (angle_list[0] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[1] > thr_angle) and (angle_list[2] > thr_angle) and (
angle_list[3] > thr_angle) and (angle_list[4] < thr_angle_s):
gesture_str = "six"
```
After identifying the different finger types of the hand and determining their positions on the image, logical recognition processing of various gestures can be performed by implementing the "**h_gesture**" function.
In the "**h_gesture**" function depicted above, the parameters "**thr_angle=65**", "**thr_angle_thenum=53**", and "**thr_angle_s=49**" represent the angle threshold values for corresponding gesture logic points. These values have been empirically tested to ensure stable recognition effects. It is not recommended to alter them unless the logic processing effect is unsatisfactory, in which case adjustments within a range of ±5 values are sufficient. The `angle_list\[0,1,2,3,4\]` corresponds to the five finger types associated with the palm.
Here's an example using the gesture "**one**":
{lineno-start=77}
```python
elif (angle_list[0] > 5) and (angle_list[1] < thr_angle_s) and (angle_list[2] > thr_angle) and (
angle_list[3] > thr_angle) and (angle_list[4] > thr_angle):
gesture_str = "one"
```
The code presented represents the logical angle evaluation of the fingers for the "**one**" gesture. "**angle_list\[0\]\>5**" checks whether the angle value of the thumb joint feature point in the image is greater than 5. "angle_list\[1\]\

```
(4) Enter the command to start the game.
```bash

```
(5) If you want to exit the game, press "**Ctrl+C**" in the terminal interface.

### 9.3.3 Program Outcome
After starting the game, the 2D pan-tilt will return to its initial position. Place your hand in front of the camera of the 2D pan-tilt, and move your hand up and down. The 2D pan-tilt will follow your hand to move up and down.
Note: Displaying the live camera feed in this game may cause the program to get stuck. Therefore, it is not recommended to display the feedback image during the game. If you need to view the live camera feed, open a new command line terminal and enter the command "**rqt_image_view**".
### 9.3.4 Program Analysis
The source code of the program is located at:[/home/ubuntu/ros2_ws/src/example/example/hand_track/hand_track_node.py](https://store.hiwonder.com.cn/docs/mentorpi/source_code/hand_track_node.zip)
**(1) Subscribe and publish node**
A publisher message "**/ros_robot_controller/pwm_servo/set_state**" is published to control the rotation of the pan-tilt servo.
A topic message of the hand detection "**/hand_detect/center**" is subscribed to obtain the center point of the hand.
{lineno-start=35}
```python
self.pwm_pub = self.create_publisher(SetPWMServoState,'ros_robot_controller/pwm_servo/set_state',10)
self.mecanum_pub = self.create_publisher(Twist, '/controller/cmd_vel', 1)
self.image_sub = self.create_subscription(Point2D, '/hand_detect/center', self.get_hand_callback, 1)
```
**(2) Update PID data**
The PID algorithm is used to update the coordinates of the X and Z axes.
{lineno-start=81}
```python
def get_hand_callback(self, msg):
if msg.width != 0:
self.center = msg
else:
self.center = None
def main(self):
while self.running:
if self.center is not None:
t1 = time.time()
self.pid_y.SetPoint = self.center.width / 2
self.pid_y.update(self.center.width - self.center.x)
self.y_dis += self.pid_y.output
if self.y_dis < 800:
self.y_dis = 800
```
The center position coordinate of the image is obtained by dividing the height or width of the image by 2. Compare the result with the center point coordinate of the hand to obtain the deviation for updating the PID data. The output result of the PID algorithm updates the coordinates of the X and Z axes.
**(3) Publish pan-tilt servo angle**
Call custom servo message type to publish the position information of the pan-tilt servo.
{lineno-start=45}
```python
msg = SetPWMServoState()
msg.duration = 0.2
for i in range(len(position_data)):
pos = PWMServoState()
pos.id = [i+1]
pos.position = [int(position_data[i])]
pwm_list.append(pos)
msg.state = pwm_list
self.pwm_pub.publish(msg)
```
## 9.4 Posture Control
Through the human pose estimation model in the MediaPipe machine learning framework, the human body can be detected on the live camera feed. The joint-related positions of the human body can be marked. Then, various actions can be recognized in sequence, thereby achieving direct control of the robot through human body.
From the perspective of the robot, when you raise your left arm, the robot will move to the right; when you raise your right arm, the robot will move to the left; when your left leg is raised, the robot will move forward; and when your right leg is raised, the robot will move backward.
### 9.4.1 Program Logic
First, import the human pose estimation model from MediaPipe and subscribe to topic messages to obtain real-time footage from the camera.
Then, process the image, such as flipping, to detect human body information in the image. Based on the lines connecting the key points of the human body, calculate the limb height to determine the body movement.
Finally, if you make specified actions, the robot will perform the corresponding actions.
### 9.4.2 Operation Steps

Based on the game's effectiveness, the procedural logic is delineated as follows:
Obtaining the image through the camera, the robot will execute corresponding action after you make a pose. Taking the perspective of the robot, when you raise your left arm, the robot will turn left; when your right arm is raised, it will turn right; when your left leg is raised, it will move forward; and when your right leg is raised, it will move backward.
The program logic flow chart obtained from the program files is depicted in the figure below.
Define relevant parameters through the initialization function "**init(self.name)**", including the image tool "**self.drawing**" object used to draw the recognized feature points, and the the body detection object "**self.body_detector**". Then, perform the recognition logic processing for the output results of the recognized feature points. Judge the distance between the key points to save the actions. Finally, output the results to make the robot perform the corresponding actions.

### 9.5.3 Program Outcome
Once the game starts, ensure the human body remains as fully within the camera's field of view as possible. Upon recognizing the human body, the key points will be highlighted in the returned image.
At this point, the individual can sit down briefly. Upon detecting the "**falling**" posture, the robot will continuously sound an alarm and make repeated forward and backward movements as a reminder.
### 9.5.4 Program Analysis
The program file is saved in: [ros2_ws/src/example/example/body_control/include/fall_down_detect.py]()
:::{Note}
Prior to making any alterations to the program, ensure to create a backup of the original factory program. Modify it only after creating the backup. Directly editing the source code file is prohibited to prevent inadvertent parameter modifications that could render the robot dis-functional and irreparable!
:::
Based on the game's effectiveness, the procedural logic is delineated as follows:
The robot captures images via the camera, identifies the key feature points of the human body, and assesses whether the current posture indicates a "**fall**". If a fall is detected, the robot's buzzer will emit a continuous "**beep**" sound while the robot moves backward. Otherwise, the buzzer will only emit a single "**beep**" sound.
The program logic flow chart obtained from the program files is depicted in the figure below.

```python
def get_node_state(self, request, response):
response.success = True
return response
```
Set the initialization state of the current node.
(4) shutdown:

```python
def shutdown(self, signum, frame):
self.running = False
```
Program exit callback function: used to terminate recognition.
(5) image_callback:
{lineno-start=}
```python
def image_callback(self, ros_image):
cv_image = self.bridge.imgmsg_to_cv2(ros_image, "rgb8")
rgb_image = np.array(cv_image, dtype=np.uint8)
if self.image_queue.full():
# 如果队列已满，丢弃最旧的图像(if the queue is full, discard the oldest image)
self.image_queue.get()
# 将图像放入队列(put the image into the queue)
self.image_queue.put(rgb_image)
```
Image node callback function: used to process images and enqueue them.
(6) Move:
{lineno-start=109}
```python
def move(self):
for i in range(5):
twist = Twist()
twist.linear.x = 0.2
self.mecanum_pub.publish(twist)
time.sleep(0.2)
twist = Twist()
twist.linear.x = -0.2
self.mecanum_pub.publish(twist)
time.sleep(0.2)
self.mecanum_pub.publish(Twist())
self.stop_flag =True
self.move_finish = True
```
Movement strategy function that moves the robot based on the recognized limb height.
(7) buzzer_warn：
{lineno-start=123}
```python
def buzzer_warn(self):

msg.freq = 1000
msg.on_time = 0.1
msg.off_time = 0.1
msg.repeat = 1
self.buzzer_pub.publish(msg)
time.sleep(0.2)
else:
msg = BuzzerState()
msg.freq = 1900
msg.on_time = 0.2
msg.off_time = 0.01
msg.repeat = 1
self.buzzer_pub.publish(msg)
```

results = self.body_detector.process(image)
if results is not None and results.pose_landmarks:
if self.move_finish:
landmarks = get_joint_landmarks(image, results.pose_landmarks.landmark)
h = height_cal(landmarks)
if h > image.shape[:-2][0] - 120:
self.fall_down_count.append(1)
else:
self.fall_down_count.append(0)
if len(self.fall_down_count) == 3:
