Abstract: An adaptive tracking system for spatial input devices provides real-time tracking of spatial input devices for human-computer interaction in a Spatial Operating Environment (SOE). The components of an SOE include gestural input/output; network-based data representation, transit, and interchange; and spatially conformed display mesh. The SOE comprises a workspace occupied by one or more users, a set of screens which provide the users with visual feedback, and a gestural control system which translates user motions into command inputs. Users perform gestures with body parts and/or physical pointing devices, and the system translates those gestures into actions such as pointing, dragging, selecting, or other direct manipulations. The tracking system provides the requisite data for creating an immersive environment by maintaining a model of the spatial relationships between users, screens, pointing devices, and other physical objects within the workspace.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein includes a system comprising a processor coupled to display devices, sensors, remote client devices, and computer applications. The computer applications orchestrate content of the remote client devices simultaneously across the display devices and the remote client devices, and allow simultaneous control of the display devices. The simultaneous control includes automatically detecting a gesture of at least one object from gesture data received via the sensors. The detecting comprises identifying the gesture using only the gesture data. The computer applications translate the gesture to a gesture signal, and control the display devices in response to the gesture signal.

Abstract: A Spatial Operating Environment (SOE) with markerless gestural control includes a sensor coupled to a processor that runs numerous applications. A gestural interface application executes on the processor. The gestural interface application receives data from the sensor that corresponds to a hand of a user detected by the sensor, and tracks the hand by generating images from the data and associating blobs in the images with tracks of the hand. The gestural interface application detects a pose of the hand by classifying each blob as corresponding to an object shape. The gestural interface application generates a gesture signal in response to a gesture comprising the pose and the tracks, and controls the applications with the gesture signal.
