20080225041 | Method and System for Vision-Based Interaction in a Virtual Environment - A method and system for vision-based interaction in a virtual environment is disclosed. According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises receiving data from a plurality of sensors to generate a meshed volumetric three-dimensional representation of a subject. A plurality of clusters is identified within the meshed volumetric three-dimensional representation that corresponds to motion features. The motion features include hands, feet, knees, elbows, head, and shoulders. The plurality of sensors is used to track motion of the subject and manipulate the motion features of the meshed volumetric three-dimensional representation. | 09-18-2008 |
20120162378 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR VISION-BASED INTERACTION IN A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT - Method, computer program and system for tracking movement of a subject. The method includes receiving data from a plurality of fixed position sensors comprising a distributed network of time of flight camera sensors to generate a volumetric three-dimensional representation of the subject, identifying a plurality of clusters within the volumetric three-dimensional representation that correspond to features indicative of motion of the subject relative to the fixed position sensors and one or more other portions of the subject, and presenting one or more objects on one or more three dimensional display screens.
