Gesture detection based on information from multiple types of sensors

摘要

A method includes receiving a first output from a first sensor of an electronic device and receiving a second output from a second sensor of the electronic device. The first sensor has a first sensor type and the second sensor has a second sensor type that is different from the first sensor type. The method also includes detecting a gesture based on the first output and the second output according to a complementary voting scheme that is at least partially based on gesture complexity.

1. An apparatus comprising:
a first sensor configured to generate a first output; a camera configured to generate a second output; and a processor configured to:
detect a gesture based on at least one of the first output and the second output when a lighting level is greater than or equal to a threshold; anddeactivate at least a portion of the camera and perform gesture recognition based on the first output from the first sensor when the lighting level is less than the threshold.
