Direct Interaction with Large-Scale Display Systems using Infrared Laser tracking Devices

چکیده
Existing large scale display systems generally adopt an indirect approach to user interaction. This is due to the use of standard desktop-oriented devices, such as a mouse on a desk, to control the large wall-sized display. By using an infrared laser pointer and an infrared tracking device, a more direct interaction with the large display can be achieved, thereby reducing the cognitive load of the user and improving their mobility. The challenge in designing such systems is to allow users to interact with objects on the display naturally and easily. Our system addresses this with hotspots, regions surrounding objects of interest, and gestures, movements made with the laser pointer which triggers an action, similar to those found in modern web browsers (e.g. Mozilla and Opera). Finally, these concepts are demonstrated by an add-in module for Microsoft PowerPoint using the NaturalPointTM Smart-NavTM tracking device.

Direct Interaction with Large-Scale Display Systems using Laser Pointers
Existing large scale display systems generally adopt an indirect approach to user interaction. An alternative to the standard desktop-oriented devices, such as the computer mouse to control large wall-sized displays, can be considered in improving user-efficiency. By using an infrared laser pointer and an infrared tracking device, a more direct interaction with the large display can be achieved...
متن کاملReal-time Monocular Tracking of View Frustum for Large Screen Human-Computer Interaction
This paper introduces a novel approach towards direct interaction with large display systems. Monocular computer vision is utilised to avoid restraints imposed by input devices. Tracking the user’s head and determining the view frustum in real-time is one of the key processes in our proposed human-computer interaction system. We also proposed using a view frustum to model the user’s interaction...
متن کاملNew Sensor and Music Systems for Large Interactive Surfaces
We have developed several systems for tracking hand and body motion in front of large interactive media surfaces, such as rearprojection screens or video walls. In particular, this paper concentrates on a small, inexpensive, phase-measuring scanning laser rangefinder designed to address this niche. This device, mounted below a corner of a screen, can track the position of multiple bare hands in...
متن کاملSchool of IT Technical Report ESTIMATING POINTING DIRECTION IN 3D USING MONOCULAR TRACKING FOR DIRECT INTERACTION WITH LARGE SCREENS
This paper provides an overview of a novel approach towards direct interaction with large display systems using natural hand pointing. Determining two points in 3D space and extracting the line of pointing is one of the key processes in our proposed human-computer interaction system. To avoid restraints imposed by input devices, our system uses monocular computer vision and a face detection alg...
متن کاملA Variable Structure Observer Based Control Design for a Class of Large scale MIMO Nonlinear Systems
This paper fully discusses how to design an observer based decentralized fuzzy adaptive controller for a class of large scale multivariable non-canonical nonlinear systems with unknown functions of subsystems’ states. On-line tuning mechanisms to adjust both the parameters of the direct adaptive controller and observer that guarantee the ultimately boundedness of both the tracking error and tha...
