  • Publication number: 20230244305
    Abstract: An active interactive navigation system includes a display device, a target object image capturing device, a user image capturing device, and a processing device. The target object image capturing device captures a dynamic object image. The user image capturing device obtains a user image. The processing device recognizes and selects a service user from the user image and captures a facial feature of the service user. If the facial feature matches facial feature points, the processing device detects a line of sight of the service user and accordingly recognizes a target object watched by the service user, generates face position three-dimensional coordinates corresponding to the service user, position three-dimensional coordinates corresponding to the target object, and depth and width information, accordingly calculates a cross-point position where the line of sight passes through the display device, and display virtual information of the target object on the cross-point position of the display device.

  • Patent number: 11568550
    Abstract: A method, a processing device, and a system for object tracking are proposed. The method includes the following steps. Imaging capturing is performed on an actual scene by using a primary camera and at least one secondary camera to respectively generate a primary image and at least one secondary image. Image stacking is performed on the primary image and the at least one secondary image to generate a stacked image. Position information and depth information of each object in the stacked image are computed. Whether there exist same objects among the objects in the stacked images is determined based on the position information and the depth information of each of the objects.

  • Patent number: 10928930
    Abstract: A transparent display device and a control method using the same are provided. The transparent display device includes a transparent display, a plurality of identification sensors, a scene sensor, and a controller. The identification sensors are configured to sense a user located at a first side of the transparent display to generate a plurality of identification data. The scene sensor is configured to sense scene information located at a second side. The controller obtains a user distance between the user and the transparent display, selects corresponding identification data generated by at least one of or multiple of the identification sensors according to the user distance, determines a location and a gaze direction of the user and a target object in the scene information according to the selected corresponding identification data, and presents target object information corresponding to the target object in the transparent display.
