A SIMULATOR INCLUDING A METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING THE CO-ORDINATES OF AN OBJECT IN TWO DIMENSIONS

摘要

The invention relates to a simulator. The simulator includes a method and apparatus for determining the coordinates of an object in two dimensions. A camera and infrared camera are provided, for capturing images of the controller. The infrared image is processed using an active contour model to produce a training image from an image from the camera. An adaptive correlation filter is constructed from the training image, which is correlated with images from the camera to measure the position of the controller.
