Patent number: 10846942Abstract: Free space machine interface and control can be facilitated by predictive entities useful in interpreting a control object's position and/or motion (including objects having one or more articulating members, i.e., humans and/or animals and/or machines). Predictive entities can be driven using motion information captured using image information or the equivalents. Predictive information can be improved applying techniques for correlating with information from observations.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2014Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: Ultrahaptics IP Two LimitedInventors: Kevin A Horowitz, David S Holz

Publication number: 20200201445Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to automatically (e.g., programmatically) initializing predictive information for tracking a complex control object (e.g., hand, hand and tool combination, robot end effector) based upon information about characteristics of the object determined from sets of collected observed information. Automated initialization techniques obviate the need for special and often bizarre start-up rituals (place your hands on the screen at the places indicated during a full moon, and so forth) required by conventional techniques. In implementations, systems can refine initial predictive information to reflect an observed condition based on comparison of the observed with an analysis of sets of collected observed information.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 28, 2020Publication date: June 25, 2020Applicant: Ultrahaptics IP Two LimitedInventor: Kevin A.
