Embodiment Construction

[0019] A system and method for a gesture-based control system is described. In the following description, various features are described in detail in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. It is apparent that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known features were not described in detail.

[0020] system

[0021] figure 1 A block diagram of an embodiment of the invention is shown. The user places his hands 101 and 102 within the field of view of the array of cameras 104A-104D. The camera detects the position, orientation and movement of the fingers and hands 101 and 102 and generates output signals to the pre-processor 105 . The pre-processor 105 translates the camera's output into a gesture signal, which is provided to the computer processing unit 107 of the system. Computer 107 uses the input information to generate commands to control one or more on-screen cursors and to p...

Abstract

The system provides a gestural interface to various visually presented elements, presented on a display screen or screens. A gestural vocabulary includes 'instantaneous' commands, in which forming one or both hands into the appropriate 'pose' results in an immediate, one-time action; and 'spatial' commands, in which the operator either refers directly to elements on the screen by way of literal 'pointing' gestures or performs navigational maneuvers by way of relative or 'offset' gestures. The system contemplates the ability to identify the users hands in the form of a glove or gloves with certain indicia provided thereon, or any suitable means for providing recognizable indicia on a user's hands or body parts. A system of cameras can detect the position, orientation, and movement of the user's hands and translate that information into executable commands.

Description

[0001] This patent application claims priority to US Provisional Patent Application 60 / 651,290, filed February 8, 2005, entitled "Gesture Based Control System." [0002] Background of the invention technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to the field of computer systems, and more particularly to a system and method for a gesture-based control system. Background technique [0004] A user may use an input device such as a mouse, keyboard, joystick, lateral keys, etc., by manipulating data or images in a window on the display, or by selecting an action from a menu or associated program associated with the window. Enter commands and interact with computer systems. Such an input device can also be used as a position translation device, which can be used to position a graphical on-screen pointer, such as a cursor. For example, the cursor function is used to indicate characters to be revised or to indicate where data is to be entered or an operation to b...
