Head Tracking Based Gesture Control Techniques for Head Mounted Displays

摘要

A head gesture-based recognition system in Headset Computers (HSC) is disclosed. Notification dialogue boxes can be acknowledged by head nodding or ticking movement in the user interface. Question dialog boxes can be assured by head nods or head shakes in the user interface. Head swiping is also a recognizable form of user input through a head tracker of the HSC. Progress indicators and other visual display feedback are utilized.
