20150145830 | REMOTE CONTROL APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING VIRTUAL TOUCH BY USING INFORMATION DISPLAYED BY A PROJECTOR - Disclosed is a virtual touch remote control apparatus and method using user's movements (gestures) capable of control electronic devices remotely regardless of existence of a display on the device, by providing additional information display with a projector. The apparatus includes a 3D coordinates calculation unit, an electronic device detection unit, a user detection unit, an electronic device operation controller, and an electronic device information DB for storing device specific information. | 05-28-2015 |
20150116204 | TRANSPARENT DISPLAY VIRTUAL TOUCH APPARATUS NOT DISPLAYING POINTER - The present invention is to provide a transparent display virtual touch apparatus capable of exquisitely operating by a display portion worn on a user's face and located in front of an eye of a user and of identifying contents regardless of the direction and location of the user. The present invention includes a transparent display portion, worn on a user's face and located in front of an eye of a user, for displaying contents on a display, a first image obtaining portion, attached to one side of the transparent display portion, for capturing a location for the eye of the user, a second image obtaining portion, attached to one side of the transparent display portion, for capturing the body of the user, and a virtual touch processing portion for detecting first space coordinates and second space coordinates using each calculated 3D coordinates data using images captured by the first image obtaining portion and the second image obtaining portion and for calculating contact point coordinates data for a display surface on the transparent display portion met by a line connecting the first space coordinates and second space coordinates. | 04-30-2015 |
20140200080 | 3D DEVICE AND 3D GAME DEVICE USING A VIRTUAL TOUCH - Provided is a 3D game device using a virtual touch, the three-dimensional game device using a virtual touch includes a 3D game executing unit rendering a 3D stereoscopic game pre-stored in a game database and generating a 3D stereoscopic image regarding the rendered 3D game to provide the 3D stereoscopic image to a display unit, and a virtual touch unit generating spatial coordinate data of a specific point of a user and image coordinate data from a user's viewpoint using the 3D stereoscopic image provided from the display unit and comparing the generated spatial coordinate data and image coordinate data to verify whether or not a specific point of a user contacts or approaches the 3D stereoscopic image and thus recognize a touch of the 3D stereoscopic image. | 07-17-2014 |
20140184499 | REMOTE MANIPULATION DEVICE AND METHOD USING A VIRTUAL TOUCH OF A THREE-DIMENSIONALLY MODELED ELECTRONIC DEVICE - Disclosed is a remote control apparatus and method using a virtual touch of a three-dimensionally modeled electronic device. The remote control apparatus includes a 3D coordinate calculation unit, an electronic device detecting unit, a user detecting unit, an electronic device driving control unit, and an electronic device information database. The remote control apparatus enables the user to remotely control an operation of an electronic device using a virtual touch through a motion or gesture of the user's finger. | 07-03-2014 |
20130321347 | VIRTUAL TOUCH DEVICE WITHOUT POINTER - Provided is a virtual touch device for remotely controlling electronic equipment having a display surface. The virtual touch apparatus include an image acquisition unit, a spatial coordinate calculation unit, a touch location calculation unit, and a virtual touch processing unit. The image acquisition unit includes two image sensors disposed at different locations and photographs a user's body at the front of the display surface. The spatial coordinate calculation unit calculates three-dimensional coordinate data of the user's body using an image from the image acquisition unit. The touch location calculation unit calculates a contact point coordinate where a straight line connecting between a first spatial coordinate and a second spatial coordinate meets the display surface using the first and second spatial coordinates received from the spatial coordinate calculation unit. | 12-05-2013 |
