Abstract: Methods and systems for camera movement compensation for gesture detection and object recognition. In some examples, the methods and systems analyze motion data associated with the sequential frames of a video stream, and reject those frames where the detected camera movement exceeds a predetermined threshold. In other examples, the methods and systems use motion data and portions of immediate previous frames to adjust a frame where the detected camera movement exceeds the predetermined threshold to create an adjusted frame that compensates for the detected camera movement. In still other examples, frames are adjusted if the detected motion exceeds a first threshold, and rejected if the detected motion exceeds a second, higher threshold.
Abstract: Gesture recognition systems for detecting gesture commands in light conditions and in dark conditions including a computing system having a processor and a thermographic camera configured to detect infrared radiation from a gesture made by a user and communicate gesture image information to the processor for carrying out a computer-readable gesture command are shown and described. In some examples, the computing system and the thermographic camera are supported on an eyewear article frame. In some other examples, the computing system and the thermographic camera are components of a mobile device. In even other examples, the computing system and the thermographic camera are components of a desk top computer or a laptop computer.
Abstract: Visual training aids including an eyewear article including a lens, an image generator mounted to the eyewear article in a position to display an image on the lens, a processor operatively connected to and in data communication with the image generator, a global positioning system operatively connected to and in data communication with the processor, a computer readable medium operatively connected to and in data communication with the processor. In some examples, the visual training aid includes a pair of eyeglasses. In some examples, the visual training aid includes a display monitor mounted to the eyewear. In some examples, the visual training aid includes a camera mounted to the eyewear.
