Having seen this demo, I would say that it would be very easy to adapt it so as to control the robot’s movement. These are only experiments of what the robot can do.

If I would want to try hand sings recognition I would probably use it to control the movements of the robot, like: stop, follow me, turn left/right, go backwards…
