Universal gesture detection method and universal gesture detection equipment

The invention relates to a general gesture detection method, which is executed by general gesture detection equipment and comprises the following steps of: receiving a current sensing signal from a sensing unit; generating a current image according to the current sensing signal; judging whether the current image is similar to a storage image stored in a storage unit or not; when the current image is similar to the stored image, judging that the current image and the stored image are gesture signals; and when the current image is not similar to the stored image, storing the current image in the storage unit, and returning to the step of receiving the current sensing signal. Since the universal gesture detection device is capable of automatically detecting the gesture signal, the user does not need to enable the detection period before making the instruction action. Therefore, a user can make an instruction action without enabling a detection period, thereby increasing convenience. 本发明关于一种通用手势检测方法，由通用手势检测设备执行，其
