PROVISION OF AUDIO AND VIDEO STREAMS BASED ONHAND DISTANCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240020872 titled 'PROVISION OF AUDIO AND VIDEO STREAMS BASED ONHAND DISTANCES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a computer-readable medium that stores executable code. When this code is executed by a controller of an electronic device, it enables the controller to obtain an image of a human hand from a video stream captured by a camera. The controller can then control the provision of the video stream, audio stream, or a combination thereof to a network based on the distance of the human hand from the camera, as determined using the image.

  • The patent application involves a computer-readable medium storing executable code.
  • The code enables a controller to obtain an image of a human hand from a video stream captured by a camera.
  • The controller can control the provision of the video stream, audio stream, or a combination thereof to a network.
  • The control is based on the distance of the human hand from the camera, as determined using the image.

Potential Applications:

  • Gesture-based control systems for electronic devices.
  • Virtual reality or augmented reality applications that utilize hand tracking.
  • Remote control systems that can be operated by hand gestures.

Problems Solved:

  • Simplifies the process of controlling the provision of video or audio streams based on hand distance.
  • Enables more intuitive and natural interaction with electronic devices.
  • Reduces the need for physical input devices such as remote controls or touchscreens.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced user experience through gesture-based control.
  • Increased convenience and flexibility in controlling electronic devices.
  • Potential for improved accessibility for individuals with mobility limitations.


Original Abstract Submitted

in some examples, a non-transitory, computer-readable medium stores executable code, which, when executed by a controller of an electronic device, causes the controller to: obtain an image of a human hand from a video stream captured by a camera; and control provision of the video stream, an audio stream, or a combination thereof to a network based on a distance of the human hand from the camera as determined using the image.
