Gesture Recognition Using a Laser Pointer
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work proposes an alternative computer control method based upon a standard laser pointer and LCD projector, used to control applications and recognise specific contextual gestures at a significant stand-off distance. The use of a 1-d left-to-right hidden Markov model allows a range of predefined gestures to be identified, and interpreted according to the application being used. Additionally, the laser pointer can be used as a traditional mouse for controlling the computer remotely.

Laser pointer interaction for 3D angiography operation
A primary challenge for creating an interactive display in operating room (OR) is in the definition of control methods that are efficient and easy to learn for the physician. Apart from traditional input methods such as mouse and keyboard, we present a system that utilizes the laser pointer to manipulate directly the 3D medical images of angiography on LCD display. This work is based on laser d...
متن کاملDesigning Laser Gesture Interface for Robot Control
A laser pointer can be a powerful tool for robot control. However, in the past, their use in the field of robotics has been limited to simple target designation, without exploring their potential as versatile input devices. This paper proposes to create a laser pointer-based user interface for giving various instructions to a robot by applying stroke gesture recognition to the laser’s trajector...

Gesture recognition is a common method of text input on handheld and other pen-based computing devices. Xstroke is a full-screen gesture recognition program for the X Window System. The touchscreen of a typical pen-based device is divided into two regions, a primary region for application display and interaction, and a secondary region for gesture input. Full-screen gesture recognition improves...
متن کاملSurgeon's Magic Wand: A Screen Pointing Interactive Method
A novel, non-touch, screen pointing “magic wand” interface is proposed for surgeon’s use in an environment requiring simultaneous display of several patients’ data over a continuous period of time. The magic wand or passive pointing device does not have any active energy source within it (as opposed to a laser pointer) and thus cannot easily be detected or identified. Thus, modeling and simulat...
