Systems and methods for triggering actions based on touch-free gesture detection
First Claim
1. A touch-free gesture recognition system, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to;
receive image information from an image sensor;
determine one or more locations in the image information relating to at least one control boundary based, at least in part, on a physical dimension of a device in a field of view of a user;
detect in the image information a gesture performed by the user;
detect a gesture location in the image information, wherein at least a portion of the gesture location is detected outside the control boundary, and wherein the gesture location is associated with at least one control boundary crossed by the detected gesture; and
cause an action associated with the detected gesture, the detected gesture location, and a relationship between the detected gesture location and the control boundary.

Abstract
Systems, methods and non-transitory computer-readable media for triggering actions based on touch-free gesture detection are disclosed. The disclosed systems may include at least one processor. A processor may be configured to receive image information from an image sensor, detect in the image information a gesture performed by a user, detect a location of the gesture in the image information, access information associated with at least one control boundary, the control boundary relating to a physical dimension of a device in a field of view of the user, or a physical dimension of a body of the user as perceived by the image sensor, and cause an action associated with the detected gesture, the detected gesture location, and a relationship between the detected gesture location and the control boundary.

21. A method for a touch-free gesture recognition system, comprising:
-
receiving image information from an image sensor; determining one or more locations in the image information relating to at least one control boundary based, at least in part, on a physical dimension of a device in a field of view of a user; detecting in the image information a gesture performed by the user; detecting a gesture location in the image information, wherein at least a portion of the gesture location is detected outside the control boundary, and wherein the gesture location is associated with at least one control boundary crossed by the detected gesture; and causing an action associated with the detected gesture, the detected gesture location, and a relationship between the detected gesture location and the control boundary. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35)

36. A touch-free gesture recognition system, comprising:
at least one processor configured to; receive image information from an image sensor; determine at least one location in the image information associated with a control boundary based, at least in part, on a physical dimension of a device in a field of view of a user; detect in the image information a gesture performed by the user, wherein at least a portion of the gesture is detected outside the control boundary; determine whether the detected gesture crosses the at least one location associated with the control boundary; cause a first action when the detected gesture crosses the at least one location associated with the control boundary; and cause a second action when the detected gesture does not cross the at least one location associated with the control boundary. - View Dependent Claims (37)
