Gesture interaction with a driver information system of a vehicle
First Claim
1. A control system for moving and/or magnifying display content, comprising:
- a display unit having the display content;
at least one camera which is designed to record a sensing region in front of the display unit;
a gesture recognition unit which is coupled to the at least one camera and is designed to recognize a predetermined gesture performed with a hand and a current position of the gesture in the sensing region; and
a display content adapting unit which is designed to adapt the display content in accordance with a change of the current position of the gesture, including moving the display content accordingly in the event of a change of the position in a plane parallel to the display unit and/or enlarging or reducing the size of the display content in the event of a change of the position toward or away from, respectively, the display unit;
wherein the display content adapting unit is designed to move the display content, in horizontal and vertical directions, distances equal to distances by which the hand is moved in the horizontal and vertical directions;
wherein the display content adapting unit is designed, as soon as a last position of the gesture has been acquired, to allow the display content to continue to run for a predetermined amount of time at a last sensed speed at which the position of the gesture has changed, and thereafter to slow down continuously until the display content comes to a standstill; and
wherein the gesture recognition unit calculates a corresponding position of the at least one camera in each of x, y, and z directions in accordance with relationships including;
PVCnx=PVC1x*2{circumflex over (
)}((Gnx−
G1x)/fx),
PVCny=PVC(n-1)y+PVCnx*(Gny−
G(n-1)y))*fy), and
PVCnz=PVC(n-1)z+PVCnx*(Gnz−
G(n-1)z)*fz),where PVCnx, PVCny, and PVCnz are the corresponding positions, G is the gesture, fx, fy, fz are sensitivity parameters, n is an index for the corresponding positions sensed during an interaction, and 1<
n≤
k, where k is a number of position coordinates.

Abstract
A control system is provided for moving and/or magnifying display content, wherein the control system includes: a display unit having display content; at least one camera, which is designed to record a sensing region in front of the display unit; a gesture-recognition unit, which is coupled to the at least one camera and is designed to recognize a predetermined gesture performed with a hand and a current position of the gesture in the sensing region; and a display-content adapting unit, which is designed to adapt the display content in accordance with a change of the current position of the gesture, in particular to move the display content accordingly in the event of a change of the position in a plane parallel to the display unit and/or to enlarge or reduce the size of the display content in the event of a change of the position toward or away from the display unit.
