Device and method for hierarchical object recognition
First Claim
1. A device comprising:
- an augmented reality display device including a camera, a display device, and an eye-tracking device;
an input device;
a memory storing a hierarchical object recognition library arranged in a plurality of levels;
a communication interface; and
a controller configured to;
receive, using the input device, an indication of a selected level of the hierarchical object recognition library;
determine, using the eye-tracking device, an eye-gaze direction;
recognize at least one object in an image from the camera in the eye-gaze direction by comparing at least a region of the image in the eye-gaze direction with the selected level of the hierarchical object recognition library;
control the display device to indicate a recognized object in the eye-gaze direction; and
when an object to be recognized is partially out of a field-of-view of the camera, transmit, using the communication interface, a request to a server to acquire a respective image of the object to be recognized using one or more other cameras.

Abstract
A device and method for hierarchical object recognition is provided. The device comprises: an augmented reality display device including a camera, a display device, and an eye-tracking device; an input device; a memory storing a hierarchical object recognition library arranged in a plurality of levels; and a controller. The controller receives, using the input device, an indication of a selected level of the hierarchical object recognition library. The controller determines, using the eye-tracking device, an eye-gaze direction. The controller recognizes at least one object in an image from the camera in the eye-gaze direction by comparing at least a region of the image in the eye-gaze direction with the selected level of the hierarchical object recognition library. The controller controls the display device to indicate a recognized object in the eye-gaze direction.

18. A device comprising:
-
a display device; an input device; a memory storing a hierarchical object recognition library arranged in a plurality of levels; and a controller communicatively coupled to the display device, the input device, and the memory, the controller configured to; receive an image including a plurality of objects; receive, using the input device, an indication of a selected level of the hierarchical object recognition library; determine an eye-gaze direction; recognize at least one of the objects in the image by comparing at least a region of the image in the eye-gaze direction with the selected level of the hierarchical object recognition library; control the display device to indicate a recognized object in the eye-gaze direction; and when an object to be recognized is partially out of a field-of-view of a camera that acquired the image, transmit a request to a server to acquire a respective image of the object to be recognized using one or more other cameras.
