Apparatus and Method for Recognizing Spatial Gesture
First Claim
1. An apparatus for recognizing a spatial gesture, comprising:
- a pattern formation unit for radiating light onto a surface of an object required to input a gesture in a virtual air bounce, and forming a predetermined pattern on the surface of the object;
an image acquisition unit for acquiring a motion image of the object; and
a processing unit for recognizing a gesture input by the object based on the pattern formed on the surface of the object using the acquired image.

Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus for recognizing a gesture in a space. In accordance with an embodiment, a spatial gesture recognition apparatus includes a pattern formation unit for radiating light onto a surface of an object required to input a gesture in a virtual air bounce, and forming a predetermined pattern on the surface of the object, an image acquisition unit for acquiring a motion image of the object, and a processing unit for recognizing a gesture input by the object based on the pattern formed on the surface of the object using the acquired image. In this way, depending on the depths of an object required to input a gesture in a space, haptic feedbacks having different intensities are provided, and thus a user can precisely input his or her desired gesture.
