ACTION DETECTION SYSTEM, ACTION DETECTION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18274620 titled 'ACTION DETECTION SYSTEM, ACTION DETECTION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an action detection system that can identify user actions based on skeleton information extracted from video data. The system can determine if the detected actions match pre-registered action sequences and execute predetermined processing based on the determination result.

  • The system uses skeleton information from video data to identify user actions.
  • It checks if the detected actions match pre-registered action sequences.
  • It executes predetermined processing based on the comparison result.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various fields such as:

  • Security systems
  • Gaming industry
  • Healthcare for monitoring patient movements

Problems Solved

This technology helps in:

  • Automating action detection processes
  • Enhancing user experience in interactive systems
  • Improving surveillance and monitoring systems

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Efficient and accurate action detection
  • Customizable action recognition based on pre-registered sequences
  • Streamlined processing based on detected actions

Potential Commercial Applications

A potential commercial application for this technology could be in:

  • Retail stores for analyzing customer movements at checkout machines

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be motion capture systems used in the entertainment industry for animating characters based on human movements.

What are the specific technical details of the action specification unit in the system?

The specific technical details of the action specification unit in the system include:

  • Starting the specification of at least one action ID based on skeleton information
  • Extracting skeleton information from video data of a user
  • Triggering the action specification based on the user visiting a checkout machine

How does the system ensure the accuracy of the determined action sequences?

The system ensures the accuracy of the determined action sequences by:

  • Comparing the specified action IDs with pre-registered action sequences
  • Verifying the correspondence between the detected actions and the registered sequences
  • Executing processing based on the determination result to confirm the accuracy of the identified actions.


Original Abstract Submitted

An action detection system () includes an action specification unit () configured to start specification of at least one action ID based on at least part of skeleton information extracted from video data that is a captured video of a user in response to detection of the user visiting checkout machine determined in advance, a determination unit () configured to determine whether or not an action sequence including the specified at least one action ID corresponds to registration action sequences registered in advance, and a processing control unit () configured to execute processing determined in advance in accordance with a determination result.
