Abstract: To address the issue of cross infection caused by elevator public buttons during COVID-19, a software algorithm based on machine vision for non-contact control of public buttons by gesture recognition is designed. In order to improve the accuracy of gesture recognition, an improved YOLOv4 algorithm is proposed. A Ghost module is designed based on attention mechanism, and the ResBlock module in YOLOv4 is improved to Ghost module. The experimental results show that, in the task of gesture recognition, the detection speed is improved by 14% and the detection accuracy is improved by 0.1% compared with the original model. The improved YOLOv4 algorithm is applied to the non-contact elevator buttons control system based on vision. The experimental results show that the detection accuracy reaches 98%, which meets the requirements of non-contact control for public elevators.
