Intelligent remote controlled television system and remote control method thereof

Abstract

The present invention relates to an intelligent remote controlled television system and a remote control method thereof. The television system comprises a remote control device and a television, wherein the remote control device includes a remote control communication module, and the television includes a television communication module, a screen display module and an application module. The remote control device further includes a main control module, an active camera, a storage module, and a video processing and analyzing module; and the television further includes a cursor mode interface support module. According to the system and the method of the present invention, the position of the television screen in the image captured by the active camera is detected and analyzed via the video processing and analyzing module, the position and the direction of the remote control device relative to the television are mapped as the cursor position on the television screen, and the cursor mode interface support module in the television receives the cursor position information and executes relative actions; thereby realizing the control of the television cursor mode by using a monocular camera.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an intelligent remote control television system and a remote control method thereof. Background technique [0002] Handheld remote controls have been a widely accepted TV accessory by users. Generally speaking, the remote control sends a signal to the TV that a button is pressed, and the TV takes corresponding actions according to these signals, such as turning on and off the TV, changing the channel, adjusting the volume, and so on. [0003] Remote controls that work in this way can accept very limited user actions, limited to the key presses mentioned above. Smart TV hopes to provide users with more freedom, convenience and natural user experience. At present, one of the biggest problems encountered by the popularization of smart TVs is the problem of operational convenience; it is impossible for users to easily operate smart TVs with unlimited functional potential by using traditional TV remote controls, and the button-typ...
