SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF GESTURAL INTERACTION IN A PERVASIVE COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT

摘要

The technology disclosed relates to selecting among devices room to interact with. It also relates operating a smart phone with reduced power consumption. It further relates to gesturally interacting with devices that lack gestural responsiveness. The technology disclosed also relates to distinguishing control gestures from proximate non-control gestures in a pervasive three dimensional (3D) sensory space. The technology disclosed further relates to selecting among virtual interaction modalities to interact with.

主权项

1. A method of selecting among devices to interact with, the method including:
using a smart phone equipped with a motion sensory control device that detects gestures in a three dimensional (3D) sensory space, detecting one or more heterogeneous devices that accept motion control commands; detecting a gesture in the 3D sensory space and interpreting the gesture as selecting one of the heterogeneous devices; and establishing a communication channel between the smart phone and the selected device.
