Title
Free hand interface for controlling applications based on Wii remote IR sensor
Abstract
Wii remote, a remote controller device attached to Nintendo game console, provides an inexpensive and compact hardware solution with an embedded infrared camera and accelerometers useful for tracking objects in a 3D space. We present an approach for building a unified gesture-based interface with the Wii remote device. We adopt it for tracking a user's hand motions and using the tracked motions to control applications. For example, the user can easily browse pictures, read e-books, and make presentations via the unified free hand interaction (FHI) method based on the Wii remote device. When the user utilizes his/her hand for making a simple gesture in the proposed system, the gesture will be registered by the system for controlling applications. He/she can simultaneously hold another Wii remote by the other hand for making auxiliary operations, or he/she can edit some specific functions of the registered gestures such as zooming in and out, changing page, and confirming operations.
