Gesture Identification Using A Structured Light Pattern
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer system, comprising:
- a processor;
a light source, the light source provides a structured light pattern; and
a camera coupled to the processor, the camera captures images of the structured light pattern,wherein the processor receives images of the structured light pattern from the camera and identifies a user gesture based on distortions to the structured light pattern.
