Biometric Aware Object Detection and Tracking
First Claim
1. A method of finding an authorized command issued by gesture of a hand moving freely in 3D sensory space, the method including:
- capturing a plurality of images of a hand in a three-dimensional (3D) sensory space;
processing one or more of the images of the hand to extract one or more biometric features of the hand;
authenticating the hand based on the biometric features of the hand;
processing the sequence of the images as a hand gesture;
determining a command indicated by the hand gesture;
determining whether the hand authenticated is authorized to issue the command; and
issuing an authorized command as indicated by the hand gesture.

Abstract
The technology disclosed can provide methods and systems for identifying users while capturing motion and/or determining the path of a portion of the user with one or more optical, acoustic or vibrational sensors. Implementations can enable use of security aware devices, e.g., automated teller machines (ATMs), cash registers and banking machines, other secure vending or service machines, security screening apparatus, secure terminals, airplanes, automobiles and so forth that comprise sensors and processors employing optical, audio or vibrational detection mechanisms suitable for providing gesture detection, personal identification, user recognition, authorization of control inputs, and other machine control and/or machine communications applications. A virtual experience can be provided to the user in some implementations by the addition of haptic, audio and/or other sensory information projectors.
