Tokyo, May 15, 2012 - (JCN Newswire) - NEC Corporation (NEC; TSE:6701) announced today the development of an interactive technologythat allows the control of information through a combination ofuser gestures and the display of images from a projector. The newly-developed technologyis controlled through the combinationof a movable camera, which measures and recognizesthree-dimensional shapes, and a compact image projector. Inaddition to enabling the gesture-based control of informationbetween devices, without the use of aninput device such as a remotecontrol or mouse, images that facilitate input, such as a keyboardimage, can be flexibly displayed in a wide range of locations. Thisresults in natural interactions that are intuitive and allow usersto easily see theeffect of their actions. The features of this newly-developed technology are describedbelow. 1. Achieves intuitive operation by integrating gesture-based inputand image projection A camera that measures three-dimensional shapes is used torecognize the movement and shape of the hands and fingers ascontrol input. This means that tasks such as the movement of databetween terminals and the control of devices can be performedwithout the use of an input device such as a remote control, mouseor keyboard. Further, images from the compact image projector thatfacilitate input, such as a keyboard or selected photo, can beprojected onto a variety of surfaces such as a desk or a user'shand, achieving natural interaction where the resultsof operationsare readily understood. 2. Achieves a wide range of high-precision control through amovable camera and projector The movable measurement camera and projector are controlled in anintegrated fashion. As a result, high-precisioninput and images canbe projected while tracking a user's gesture-based movements over awide range. Additionally, the locations of multiple distant devicescan be specified to enable control. With the recent expansion of cloud-based services, informationterminals have become increasingly diversified, ranging from PCs tosmartphones and tablet devices. However, the presentation ofinformation is limited to the displays on such devices, andoperation needs to be performed with the use of aninput device suchas a remote control, mouse or touchscreen. Using this technology, multiple devices can be controlled based ona user's movements, without the use of an input device, producinginterfaces that boast more natural interaction. Looking ahead, NECwill also develop a range of applied technologies, such as the freegesture-based control of digital signage, and the operation oflights, air conditioners and other devices not equipped withdisplays.
