Gestures are a natural form of communication between humans and can also be leveraged for human-robot interaction. This work presents a gesture-based user interface for object selection using pointing and click gestures. An experiment with 20 participants evaluates accuracy and selection time, demonstrating the potential for efficient collaboration.

This paper presents a novel concept for intuitive end-user programming of robots, inspired by natural interaction between humans. Natural language and supportive gestures are translated into robot programs using large language models (LLMs) and computer vision (CV). Through equally natural system feedback in the form of clarification questions and visual representations, the generated program can be reviewed and adjusted, thereby ensuring safety, transparency, and user acceptance.
