  • Patent number: 12182905
    Abstract: A method, a processing device, and a system for information display are provided, and the system includes a light transmissive display. A first information extraction device extracts spatial position information of a user, and a second information extraction device extracts spatial position information of a target object. The processing device performs the following steps. Display position information of virtual information of the target object on the display is determined according to the spatial position information of the user and the spatial position information of the target object. The display position information includes a first display reference position corresponding to a previous time and a second display reference position corresponding to a current time. An actual display position of the virtual information on the display corresponding to the current time is determined according to a distance between the first display reference position and the second display reference position.

  • 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.
