The method identifies the corners of a TV display screen from a graphical image captured by an imaging sensor of the remote controller. The method can then perform edge detection and segmentation of the graphical image using reference TV dimensions of the TV display screen to identify the pixel coordinates of the four corners of the TV display screen in the graphical image. The method can then map a camera center position in the pixel coordinates to virtual TV coordinates using a cross ratio algorithm, and then map a location of a cursor in the virtual TV coordinates to the coordinates of the TV display screen. | 12-20-2012 |
20130127719 | MULTI-TOUCH MOUSE - A multi-touch mouse includes a mouse body, a touch pad, and a controlling unit. In a case that the touch pad is not touched and the touch state is OFF, the multi-touch mouse is in a conventional two-dimensional mouse mode. In a case that the touch state of the touch pad is ON in response to a touch action and the mouse body is moved, the controlling unit switches the control mode of the multi-touch mouse to a touch gesture control mode and generates a touch gesture command. | 05-23-2013 |
