According to the invention, it is provided that the two-dimensional images are combined to form a three-dimensional image, and the three-dimensional image is analyzed at least one gestures feature. In this way, a method for automatic gesture recognition is specified, which in a simple and reliable manner is carried out in real time, and so demanding process controls, such as the control of a vehicle, permits.
