Remote control method for television and system for remotely controlling television by same

Abstract

The invention discloses a remote control method for a television and a system for remotely controlling the television by same. The remote control method for the television is characterized by comprising the following steps: giving a specific gesture to a camera by an operator; transmitting the acquired specific gesture by the camera to a three-dimensional motion recognition module in the television for the three-dimensional motion and gesture recognition; acquiring three-dimensional motion coordinates of the specific gesture by the module, and outputting a control signal; executing corresponding programs according to the control signal by an executing device in the television. By utilizing the remote control method for the television, the remote control operation on the television can be performed by the gesture; and the remote control operation on the television becomes simpler and more humanized by means of a corresponding remote control operation system. In particular, the recreation functions which can be realized on a computer originally can be finished on the television without a mouse, a keyboard and other peripheral equipment of the computer based on the platform.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, traditional remote controllers using infrared rays have become less and less suitable for the operation requirements of digital televisions.

[0003] At present, the above-mentioned interactive purpose can also be realized through computer peripheral equipment, such as mouse, keyboard, etc., and although computer peripheral equipment can carry out perfect human-computer interaction, such equipment needs the help of coffee table or desktop operating platform.

In addition, the portability of this type of equipment is poor, and it does not conform to consumers' habits of remote control operation.

[0004] On the other hand, with the help of a remote controller or other peripheral input devices, the problem of operating distance can be solved, but no matter which type of operating device is used, there will be troubles of loss and inconvenient search.
