Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this paper, we constructed 3D hand posture estimation system which searches the most similar image at each time, not by narrowing the search space by the past results from the database, but using two-stage searches: the first one is coarse screening using relative positions of fingernails, and the other is fine calculation of the similarity using low-order image features. The estimated results were outputted as the finger joint angles. The experimental results showed that the system estimated the human hand posture with 18.31 degrees as the standard deviation of estimation errors in all the finger joint angles, which suggests the efficiency of the proposed system.
