Embodiment Construction

[0047] exist figure 1 shows that the room not only includes various electronic devices that can receive user interface information I, such as the electronic device 110 that is a plasma display, but also has a personal video recorder, or a telephone, or washing machine. The room also includes various objects which are pointable by means of the pointing device 101 , namely electronic devices or just any physical objects like objects 130 such as windows, audio devices, vases 170 , and electronic devices 110 .

[0048] According to the invention, the pointing device 101 includes a camera 102 and may send images of areas of the room or objects in those areas to a digital signal processor (DSP) 120 which or multiple images to identify the area or object. The camera is connected to the pointing device 101 in such a way that the camera can well image the pointed area. For example it is typically located at the distal end of the pointing device 101, but could also be mounted at an a...

Abstract

The user interaction system includes a portable pointing device (101) connected to a camera (102) and capable of sending images to a digital signal processor (120), which can identify objects (130) and ) to move in a particular manner by a command given by the user, and the electronic device (110) can be controlled based on this recognition.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of user interaction system, and this system comprises: [0002] an electronic device; [0003] a portable pointing device operable by a user to point to an area in space; [0004] a camera for taking pictures; and [0005] A digital signal processor that receives and processes the image and transmits user interface information derived from the image to the electronic device. [0006] The invention also relates to a pointing device for use in a user interaction system. [0007] The invention also relates to an electronic device for use in the above-mentioned user interaction system. Background technique [0008] Such a system is known from US-A-2001 / 0030668. This document describes a general-purpose remote control system in which the user marks a location on the display with a pointing device with which it can display recognizable features, such as a laser pointer with which it emits a red spot , and the cam...
