USER INTERFACE, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND VEHICLE HAVING USER INTERFACE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18238761 titled 'USER INTERFACE, CONTROL METHOD THEREOF, AND VEHICLE HAVING USER INTERFACE
The control method of a user interface described in the patent application involves detecting an occupant from an image input from a camera, estimating the occupant's skeleton, estimating the relative position of a finger of the occupant based on the skeleton, determining a projection position based on the finger's relative position, projecting a projection image on the projection position using an image projector, and playing the projection image.
- Detecting an occupant from an image input from a camera
- Estimating the occupant's skeleton
- Estimating the relative position of a finger of the occupant based on the skeleton
- Determining a projection position based on the relative position of the finger
- Projecting a projection image on the projection position by an image projector and playing the projection image

Original Abstract Submitted
A control method of a user interface may include: detecting an occupant from an image input from a camera; estimating a skeleton of the occupant; estimating a relative position of a finger of the occupant based on the estimated skeleton; determining a projection position based on the relative position of the finger, and projecting a projection image on the projection position by an image projector and playing the projection image.
