First Claim
Patent Images
1. A gesture recognition video display device comprising:
- a video monitor for displaying a video image;
a light source for launching a beam of light at a predetermined wavelength defining a zone of illumination;
a light detector for receiving light at the predetermined wavelength reflected from a first viewer within the zone of illumination, and for generating electrical signals relating to a position of the first viewer relative to the light detector, wherein the position includes proximity and aximuth angle relative to the light detector; and
a computer processor for transmitting video signals of the video image onto the video monitor, for receiving the electrical signals from the light detector, and for changing the field of view of the video image based on changes in position of the first viewer;
whereby, as the first viewer moves relative to the video monitor, corresponding changes to the video image are made by the computer processor to pan the video image based on changes to the first viewer'"'"'s line of sight to the video monitor.
