Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology provide improved techniques for gesture recognition. Improved techniques may include detecting and/or classifying an interaction between the body part and another object in a scan of the body part, and then controlling recognition of a gesture based on the interaction. In an aspect, recognition parameters may be selected based on the interaction classification that disable recognition of one or more gestures while not disabling recognition of other gestures.

Abstract: The method for separating a profiled foil (5) is carried out using a rotating separation foil (1) which forms a planar surface with a circular periphery (11). The separation foil is rotated (1a) about the circle center (10) and in the plane (10a), the foil plane, which is spanned by the surface. The periphery is brought into contact (15) with the profiled foil by the execution of a relative movement (1b). In this, through abrasion, material (6) is removed and a separation gap (51) is produced in the profiled foil. Material is largely removed from the profiled foil only.

Abstract: A method for the shaping of strip-like films (2) involves the following steps: a) A film strip (2) is continuously forwarded from a film supply to shaping units. b) The film strip (2) is pleated in a first shaping unit (11). In this, edges (21, 22) are produced which form an angle of inclination to the edges (36) of the film strip having a constant value. c) After a forwarding of the pleated strip (2′) to at least one further shaping unit (12) the former is reshaped in one or more steps. In this the edges (21, 22) are eliminated through plastic deformation by means of a roller pair (120) in edge zones (30b) outside of a middle zone (30a) of the strip and are at the same time replaced by curved edges (31, 32). The angles of inclination of the curved edges continuously increase from the middle zone to the strip edges.

Abstract: The method for the zigzag-like folding of a strip-like foil includes the following steps in an advantageous embodiment:1. prepleating, whereby a zigzag-like or wave-shaped folding is effected in which the folded edges are formed in cross-section as arcs with a radius of curvature greater than about 1 mm;2. follow-up forming of each second folded edge in that a coining tool is used to influence the fold angle and to reduce the radius of curvature of the folded edge to a value smaller than 1 mm;3. follow-up forming of the remaining folded edges in the same manner as during the second step. The follow-up forming steps are executed with tumble pressing devices which respectively include a rotatable toothed roll and a coining tool. The coining tool is drivable by means of an eccentric device and is connected via a pendulum axle with a vertically displaceable slider.
