ELECTRONIC APPARATUS FOR DETECTING MOTION GESTURE, AND OPERATION METHOD THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18441425 titled 'ELECTRONIC APPARATUS FOR DETECTING MOTION GESTURE, AND OPERATION METHOD THEREFOR

The abstract describes an electronic device with a camera, processor, and memory that acquires image frames, determines fields of view (FOV) based on object orientation, recognizes motion gestures, and performs functions accordingly.

  • The device acquires image frames using a camera.
  • It determines a first FOV based on the orientation of a recognized object in the first image frame.
  • A second FOV is determined based on the orientation of the recognized object in the second image frame.
  • It recognizes a motion gesture when the first FOV is at most a first critical FOV and the second FOV is at least a second critical FOV.
  • The device performs a function corresponding to the recognized motion gesture.

Potential Applications: - Security systems - Augmented reality applications - Gesture-controlled devices

Problems Solved: - Efficient recognition of motion gestures - Enhanced user interaction with electronic devices

Benefits: - Improved user experience - Increased security measures - Enhanced functionality of electronic devices

Commercial Applications: Title: "Gesture-Controlled Security Systems: Enhancing User Interaction" This technology can be utilized in security systems, augmented reality applications, and various gesture-controlled devices, impacting the market with enhanced functionality and user experience.

Prior Art: No prior art information provided.

Frequently Updated Research: No information on frequently updated research related to this technology.

Questions about Gesture-Controlled Electronic Device: 1. How does the device determine the critical FOV for recognizing motion gestures? The device determines the critical FOV based on the orientation of the recognized object in the image frames.

2. What are the potential limitations of using motion gestures for device interaction? Potential limitations could include accuracy issues in gesture recognition and user fatigue over extended use.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device including a camera, a processor and memory storing instructions is provided. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to acquire image frames including a first image frame and a second image frame by using a camera, determine, as a first field of view (FOV), a FOV between a first axis and a first direction, in which an object related to motion is oriented, when the object is recognized in the first image frame, determine, as a second FOV, a FOV between the first axis and a second direction in which the object recognized in the second image frame following the first image frame is oriented, recognize a first motion gesture in response to the first FOV being at most a first critical FOV, the second FOV being at least a second critical FOV, and perform a first function corresponding to the first motion gesture in response to the recognition of the first motion gesture.
