Gesture recognition system operability verification
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for verifying the operability of a gesture recognition system that comprises an image capture device having a field of view, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a test target separate from, and within the field of view of, the image capture device, the test target configured to generate a test stimulus that is recognizable by the gesture recognition system;
receiving, by the image capture device, the test stimulus from the test target;
processing, in a processor, the test stimulus received by the image capture device to generate a test response;
verifying, in the processor, that the test response corresponds to the test stimulus; and
inactivating the entire gesture recognition system when the test response does not correspond to the test stimulus, whereby the gesture recognition system no longer generates any system output commands.

Abstract
A gesture recognition system and method verifies the operability of the gesture system by providing a test target that is configured to generate a test stimulus that is recognizable by the gesture recognition system. The test stimulus from the test target is received and processed in the gesture recognition system to generate a test response. The processor verifies that the test response corresponds to the test stimulus.

10. A gesture recognition system, comprising:
-
a gesture recognition device comprising an image capture device having a field of view, the gesture recognition device configured to sense movement of objects within the field of view; a test target disposed separate from, and within the field of view of, the gesture recognition device, the test target configured to generate a test stimulus detectable by the gesture recognition device; and a processor in operable communication with the gesture recognition device, the processor configured to detect object stimuli generated by objects within the field of view and selectively generate system output commands based on the detected object stimuli, the processor further configured to; receive the test stimulus detected by the gesture recognition device, generate a test response based on the test stimulus, verify that the test response corresponds to the test stimulus, and switch the entire gesture recognition system into an inactive mode when the test response does not correspond to the test stimulus, whereby the gesture recognition system no longer generates any system output commands. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
