Preface
The need to improve communication between humans and computers has been instrumental in defining new modalities of communication, and new ways of interacting with machines. Gestures can convey information for which other modalities are not efficient or suitable. In natural and user-friendly interaction, gestures can be used, as a single modality, or combined in multimodal interaction schemes which involve speech, or textual media. Specification methodologies can be developed to design advanced interaction processes in order to define what kind of gestures are used, which meaning they convey, and what the paradigms of interaction are. Research centred on gesture interaction has recently provided significant technological improvements, in particular: gesture capture and tracking (from video streams or other input devices), motion reco
