METHOD AND APPARATUS WITH POSE ESTIMATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17735630 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS WITH POSE ESTIMATION
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for operating a wearable electronic device that allows a user to set a region of interest (ROI) in a camera view using hand gestures. The device generates a virtual display to project the ROI and adjusts its size based on the user's gestures.
- The method involves recognizing the user's first gesture to set a region of interest (ROI) in the camera view.
- A virtual display is generated to project the ROI if the first gesture is recognized.
- The ROI is extracted from the camera view.
- The user's second gesture is recognized to adjust the size of the ROI.
- The size of the ROI is adjusted and projected onto the virtual display if the second gesture is recognized.
Potential Applications
- Augmented reality applications where users can interact with virtual objects in their environment.
- Virtual reality applications where users can manipulate virtual objects using hand gestures.
- Remote collaboration tools where users can share their view with others and highlight specific areas of interest.
Problems Solved
- Simplifies the process of setting a region of interest in a camera view by using hand gestures instead of manual adjustments.
- Provides a more intuitive and natural way for users to interact with wearable electronic devices.
- Allows for real-time adjustments of the region of interest without the need for physical controls.
Benefits
- Improved user experience by eliminating the need for complex manual adjustments.
- Increased efficiency and accuracy in setting and adjusting the region of interest.
- Enables hands-free operation of wearable electronic devices, enhancing convenience and usability.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method of operating a wearable electronic device includes: recognizing a first gesture of a hand of a user for setting a region of interest (ROI) corresponding to a view of the user in an image frame corresponding to a view of a camera; generating a virtual display for projecting the ROI based on whether the first gesture is recognized; extracting the ROI from the image frame; recognizing a second gesture of the hand for adjusting a size of the ROI; and adjusting the size of the ROI and projecting the ROI of the adjusted size onto the virtual display, based on whether the second gesture is recognized.
