I'm a last year's student at the K.U.L. in Belgium. My thesis,concerns 
V.R. We have the ability to use a dataglove ( no force-feedback, only 
tracking) and a BOOM 3C device in our work. I would like to know in how 
far we can use this input device for modeling objects. What kind of 
Gesture Recognition algorithms are already usable in this context?

It would be very helpful if I could receive some information about 
"Gesture Recognition".

                                Thanks anyway,

                                                     Mathys Merlijn.
