Abstract:
A method of recognizing motion of an object may include periodically obtaining depth data of a first resolution and two-dimensional data of a second resolution with respect to a scene using an image capturing device, wherein the second resolution is higher than the first resolution; determining a motion tracking region by recognizing a target object in the scene based on the depth data, such that the motion tracking region corresponds to a portion of a frame and the portion includes the target object; periodically obtaining tracking region data of the second resolution corresponding to the motion tracking region; and/or analyzing the motion of the target object based on the tracking region data.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for guiding a subject back within the recognizable visual range of a multimedia system are described. According to one of the described methods, when it is determined that the target has left the recognizable range of the multimedia system, sensor information is acquired from a portable electronic device (or controller) the user has been using to control the multimedia system, and the acquired sensor information is used to determine where the user is, relative to the recognizable range. In one example, the user is asked to make a gesture with the portable electronic device, and the sensor information concerning that gesture is used to determine the user's relative location. In another example, the sensor information recorded at the time the user left the recognizable range is used to determine the user's relative location.
