  • Patent number: 11892562
    Abstract: A performing device of an impulse-like gesture recognition system executes an impulse-like gesture recognition method. A performing procedure of the impulse-like gesture recognition method includes steps of: receiving a sensing signal from a sensing unit; determining a prediction with at least one impulse-like label according to the sensing frames by a deep learning-based model; and classifying at least one gesture event according to the prediction. The gesture event is classified to determine the motion of the user. Since the at least one impulse-like label is used to label at least one detection score of the deep learning-based model, the detection score is non-decreasing, reaction time of the at least one gesture event for an incoming gesture is fast, rapid consecutive gestures are easily decomposed, and an expensive post-processing is not needed.

  • Patent number: 11804077
    Abstract: A generic gesture detecting method executed by a generic gesture detecting device includes steps of: receiving a current sensing signal from a sensing unit; generating a current image according to the current sensing signal; determining whether the current image is similar with a stored image stored in a memory unit; when the current image is similar with the stored image, detecting the current image and the stored image to be a gesture signal; when the current image is different from the stored image, storing the current image into the memory unit, and returning to the step of receiving a current sensing signal. Since the generic gesture detecting device can automatically detect the gesture signal, the user may not need to enable a detecting time period before implementing a command motion. Therefore, the user can make the command motion without enabling the detecting time period, and the convenience can be increased.

  • Patent number: 10810411
    Abstract: A performing device of a gesture recognition system for reducing a false alarm rate executes a performing procedure of a gesture recognition method for reducing the false alarm rate. The gesture recognition system includes two neural networks. A first recognition neural network is used to classify a gesture event, and a first noise neural network is used to determine whether the sensing signal is the noise. Since the first noise neural network can determine whether the sensing signal is the noise, the gesture event may not be executed when the sensing signal is the noise. Therefore, the false alarm rate may be reduced.
