  • Patent number: 9766721
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method, a video system, and a system for realizing a simple air mouse. The method includes: a video terminal obtaining current position parameters of an air mouse, wherein the current position parameters comprise a deflection angle and a deflection direction of the air mouse with respect to an originally-calibrated coordinate position; and determining a position of a cursor on the video terminal according to the current position parameters and a preset scale parameter. By presetting reference points in the air mouse, the present disclosure obtains the deflection angle and the deflection direction of the air mouse with respect to the original position by the camera device based on the above reference points, and determines the position of the cursor on the video terminal according to the deflection angle and the deflection direction and the preset scale parameter.
