Patent number: 11467400Abstract: An information display method and an information display system are provided. The method is adapted to the information display system including a first image capturing device and a transparent display, and the method includes the following steps. A pattern image is obtained by shooting a pattern placed on a real object through the first image capturing device, wherein the real object is located on one side of the transparent display. Relative position information between the transparent display and the pattern is obtained according to the pattern image. Augmented image data is obtained according to the relative position information. The augmented image data is displayed through the transparent display, wherein the augmented image data include a virtual object augmented based on the real object.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2020Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Ruo-Lan Chang, Pi-Hsien Wang, Chih-Chia Chang, Yu-Hsin Lin

Patent number: 11295133Abstract: An interaction display method and an interaction display system are provided. The interaction display system includes a transparent display and at least one image sensing device. Image data of a plurality of operators is captured by the image sensing device. At least one local feature and at least one global feature of the operators are extracted from the image data, and at least one projection point on a display plane of the transparent display is detected. Each local feature and each global feature are paired. Each projection point and each global feature are paired. According to a pairing result between each local feature and each global feature and a pairing result between each projection point and each global feature, a pointing direction of one of the operators is determined, an interaction continuation operation is performed, and/or notification information is provided.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2019Date of Patent: April 5, 2022Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Pi-Hsien Wang, Yu-Hsin Lin, Chih-Chia Chang
