According to various embodiments, a method for gesture recognition using a neural network is provided. The method comprises a training mode and an inference mode. In the training mode, the method includes: passing a dataset into the neural network; and training the neural network to recognize the fingers of a training user and a gesture of interest, wherein the neural network includes a convolution-nonlinearity step and a recurrent step. In the inference mode, the method includes: passing a series of images into the neural network, wherein the series of image is a virtual reality feed that includes the hands of a VR user; and recognizing the fingers of the VR user and gestures of interests from the series of images.
