چکیده

Modern personal computers, including laptops, notebooks and perhaps smartphones, often have a low-resolution camera and a powerful graphic card. In this paper we present a system that uses these resources (camera and GPU) to build a low cost virtual 3D Human Interface Device. To do this, we apply an optical flow algorithm which is characterized by its high degree of parallelization. The experimental results confirm the performance of our system.

A low-cost 3D human interface device using GPU-based optical flow algorithms

Except for a few cases, nowadays it is very common to find a camera embedded in a consumer grade laptop, notebook, mobile internet device (MID), mobile phone or handheld game console. Some of them also have a Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) to handle 3D graphics and other related tasks. This trend will probably continue in the next future and the pair camera+GPU will be more and more frequent in ...

A Miniature, One-Handed 3D Motion Controller

Users of three-dimensional computer-aided design (CAD) and gaming applications need to manipulate virtual objects in up to six degrees of rotational and translation freedom (DOF). To date, no 3D controller provides one-handed 6DOF input with miniature size and low cost. This paper presents a prototype of the first one-handed 6DOF motion controller suitable for use in portable platforms such as ...

Human Computer Interaction Using Vision-Based Hand Gesture Recognition

With the rapid emergence of 3D applications and virtual environments in computer systems; the need for a new type of interaction device arises. This is because the traditional devices such as mouse, keyboard, and joystick become inefficient and cumbersome within these virtual environments. In other words, evolution of user interfaces shapes the change in the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). In...
