Smartwatch-assisted Robust 6-DOF Hand Tracking System for Object Manipulation in HMD-based AR
Proof of concept research from KAIST University, South Korea, demonstrates how smartwatches can be used in Augmented / Virtual reality to provide accurate gesture recognition:
We introduce a smartwatch assisted sensor fusion approach to robustly
track 6-DOF hand movement in head mounted display (HMD) based augmented
reality (AR) environment, which can be used for robust 3D object
manipulation. Our method uses a wrist-worn smartwatch with HMD-mounted
depth sensor to robustly track 3D position and orientation of user’s
hand. We introduce HMD-based augmented reality platform with smartwatch,
and method to accurately calibrate orientation between smartwatch and
HMD. We also implement natural 3D object manipulating system using 6-DOF
hand tracker with hand grasping detection. Our proposed system is easy
to use, and doesn’t require any hand held devices.
i assume that, like, all of nyc is in on a conspiracy to hide the truth about blunt force head trauma from daredevil. like, to… protect his feelings??? the cops must be like “oh, yeah buddy, you really dinged those bad guys up! they’ll be feeling it for weeks! they’ll really think twice about Doing A Crime again.” when like, in reality, they are dead. they are dead people. they got busted in the head six times with a carbon fibre rod, and they died en route. i mean lets get real. daredevil showing up to the hospital with self-help books about starting over, “i’d like to drop these off for some of the bikers,” and the nurses all look at each other like, “uh… oh, honey, they were transferred to metro… north…. yeah, insurance thing. we’ll hold onto those for you.” they are all dead matt they’re dead. church is cool but maybe you should spend some more time on the Medical Side of wikipedia
