Embodiment Construction

[0036] A depth image analysis system, such as a 3D visual computing system, may include a depth camera capable of viewing one or more game players or other computer users. As the depth camera captures images of the game player or other computer user within the observed scene, those images can be interpreted and modeled with one or more virtual skeletons. Various aspects of the modeled skeleton can be used as input commands to an interactive user interface. For example, a fantasy-themed, spell-casting game may interpret the physical movements of the game player as commands to select, aim, and cast specific spells within the game.

[0037] figure 1 A non-limiting example of entertainment system 10 is shown. in particular, figure 1 Gaming system 12 is shown, which can be used to play various different games, play one or more different media types, and / or control or manipulate non-gaming applications and / or operating systems. figure 1 Also shown is a display device 14 (such as...

Abstract

Observe computer user's gestures with a depth camera. The computer user's first gesture is identified as one of a plurality of different action selection gestures, each action selection gesture being associated with a different action executable within the interface controlled by the computer user's gesture. The second gesture is identified as a triggering gesture that causes performance of the action associated with the action selection gesture.

Description

technical field [0001] This application relates to gestures, and in particular to motion selection gestures. Background technique [0002] While camera technology allows images of humans to be recorded, computers traditionally may not be able to use such images to accurately assess how humans move within the image. More recently, technology has advanced such that certain aspects of human movement can be interpreted with the help of special cameras and one or more tracking tags. For example, actors can be carefully decorated with several tracking tags (eg, retro-reflectors) that can be tracked by several cameras from several different locations. Triangulation can then be used to calculate the three-dimensional position of each reflector. Because the tags are carefully placed on the actor, and the relative position of each tag to the corresponding part of the actor's body is known, triangulation of the tag's position can be used to infer the position of the actor's body.
