Abstract: In a method for charging an electric device by a service rendering system, a controller of the service rendering system receives an image captured by an image sensor and processes the image to identify a label in the image as corresponding to the electric device. The controller obtains a service point location encoded in the label, where the service point location includes a location relative to a location of the label. The controller obtains service information included in the label, where the service request includes a charging service, and the charging service includes a description of an electric charging input of the electric device. The controller calculates a label position of the label using the image of the label and calculates a service point position using the service point location and the label position, where the service point position includes the electric charging input.

Abstract: A service rendering system locates a service object based on a label. A controller of the service rendering system receives an image captured by a camera coupled to the controller, processes the image to identify a label image in the image, identifies a label in the label image as corresponding to the service object, and obtains a service point location encoded in the label, where the service point location comprises a location relative to a location of the label. The controller calculates a label position of the label using the image of the label and calculates a service point position using the service point location and the label position.

Abstract: In determining a distance of an object captured by a remote camera, a controller receives an image of the object from another controller coupled to a camera over a data network. The image includes a label image of a label associated with the object. The controller determines a label dimension of the label that includes a real world size of the label and determines a label image dimension of the label image that includes a size of the label image. The controller calculates a label distance using optical characteristics of the camera, the label dimension, and the label image dimension, and announces the label distance using an output component coupled to the controller. When the controller receives a command to operate the camera input by a user, the controller sends at least one instruction to operate the camera according to the command to the other controller over the data network.

Abstract: A service rendering vehicle renders a service on a service object. A controller of the service rendering vehicle receives an image that includes a service label corresponding to the service object, captured by a camera coupled to the controller. The controller identifies a label image of the service label in the image. The controller obtains a service point location and a service request encoded in the service label. The service point location includes a location relative to a location of the service label. The controller calculates a label position of the service label using the image of the service label and calculates a service point position using the service point location and the label position. The controller obtains a service from the service request and issues instructions to move the service rendering vehicle to the service object and to render the service at the service point position.

Abstract: A system includes a 3D sensor panel for detecting a plurality of 3D positions corresponding to a finger movement and a controller. The controller determines that the plurality of 3D positions contain a gesture cycle by comparing a first set of positions in the plurality of 3D positions that includes at least two non-adjacent positions in the plurality of 3D positions and, upon determining that the first set of positions in the plurality of 3D positions match, determining that the plurality of positions contain the gesture cycle. the controller determines a direction of the gesture cycle based on a second set of positions in the plurality of 3D positions, where the direction is relative to the 3D sensor panel, and creates a gesture cycle record for the gesture cycle, the gesture cycle record comprising the plurality of 3D positions and the direction.

Abstract: In playing a media content, a repetitive gesture cycle record includes a gesture type, an orientation, a first gesture cycle record for a first gesture cycle, and a second gesture cycle record for a second gesture cycle. The first gesture cycle record includes a first span of 3D coordinates for the first gesture cycle and a first speed. The second gesture cycle record includes a second span of 3D coordinates for the second gesture cycle and a second speed. The first gesture cycle attributes match second gesture cycle attributes. The gesture type and a media type of the media content is compared with a plurality of actions. The gesture type and the media type match a given action, and the given action is applied on a presentation of the media content according to the orientation, the first span, the first speed, the second span, and the second speed.

Abstract: In a method for detecting a repetitive three-dimensional gesture by a computing device, a three-dimensional gesture sensor detects a plurality of positions corresponding to a finger movement. The computing device determines whether the plurality of positions contain a gesture cycle by: comparing at least two non-adjacent positions in the plurality of positions; and upon determining that the at least two non-adjacent positions match, determining that the plurality of positions contain the gesture cycle. Upon determining that the plurality of positions contains the gesture cycle, the computing device creates a gesture cycle record for the gesture cycle, creates a repetitive gesture record for a repetitive gesture, and stores the gesture cycle record in the repetitive gesture record.
