Abstract

A user worn interface, such as a hand worn glove, necklace, ankle bracelet, sock, or shirt, includes embedded electronics, radiation sources, and sensor technologies. Starting position and movement of the interface is tracked on a computer monitor with electronics and firmware/software supporting X, Y and Z axis positioning. Electro-resistive sensors embedded within a surface of the interface cooperate with an array of LEDs located on a top surface of the interface and a line of sight detection system to detect all motion, position, and gestures from specific movement of the user's body (e.g., thumb, finger digits and hand). The user's motions and positions are detected and processed to provide x, y, z and yaw, pitch, and roll data to a computer-based device.

543028 A7 __B7______ 五、發明説明(1 ) 發明背景 發明領域 本發明是關於電腦I /〇裝置的領域。更特別的是, 本發明是關於一種以身體穿戴元件形式的多軸輸入裝置。 先前技藝討論 在1 9 8 0年代早期,麥金塔電腦是在廣泛被接受的 電腦軟體中第一個使用圖形使用者介面(GUI)。 G U I是一個以圖形爲基礎、滑鼠爲中心的使用者介面, 其對圖像、視窗、淸單、及對話盒的利用可允許使用者藉 由操作圖像來選擇命令與管理程式、檔案及資料夾。麥金 塔系統也使滑鼠的使用普及化,其使得螢幕上環境的操作 .更爲簡單。 電腦應用軟體(特別是在遊戲與設計市場中)已經從 二維視訊介面過渡到感官、真實世界模擬的三維視訊介面 。然而,因爲滑鼠的出現而對輸入裝置做了些許的改變。 因爲三維輸入裝置過高的價格,在輸入裝置中二維產品仍 佔有重要地位,諸如滑鼠、鍵盤、搖桿及專用的操作台控 制器。 所需要的是不昂貴的三維輸入裝置,可藉由提供更感 官與更精準的輸入資訊構件來服務使用者的需要,其直接 輸入的方式可趕上人類與其離線環境的互動。543028 A7 __B7______ V. Description of the invention (1) Background of the invention Field of the invention The present invention relates to the field of computer I / O devices. More specifically, the present invention relates to a multi-axis input device in the form of a body-wearing element. Prior art discussions In the early 1980s, Macintosh computers were the first to use a graphical user interface (GUI) in widely accepted computer software. GUI is a graphic-based, mouse-centric user interface. Its use of images, windows, menus, and dialog boxes allows users to select commands and manage programs, files, and Folder. The Macintosh system also popularizes the use of the mouse, which makes the operation of the environment on the screen easier. Computer applications (especially in the gaming and design markets) have transitioned from two-dimensional video interfaces to sensory, real-world simulation three-dimensional video interfaces. However, a few changes were made to the input device due to the emergence of the mouse. Due to the high price of the three-dimensional input device, two-dimensional products still occupy an important position in the input device, such as a mouse, a keyboard, a joystick and a dedicated console controller. What is needed is an inexpensive three-dimensional input device that can serve the needs of users by providing more sensory and more accurate input information components. Its direct input method can catch up with human interaction with its offline environment.

The starting position and movement of this device will be tracked on the computer screen, and it has electronics & hardware / software that supports X, γ, and Z axis positioning. The device of the present invention can also obtain gestures from specific movements of thumb and fingers Recognition. Sensing the strategic position of the glove-like device; §§: to identify the positioning and movement of the glove-like device. Such detectors track the bending of fingers and hand movements in a known three-dimensional space Including its tilt, yaw and rotation. Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the input system 100 of the present invention. This system includes a glove 1 102 with embedded electronics 104, a sensor (not shown), radiation The source 105 (LED), the tracking head 106 tracking the position of the radioactive source, and the computer interface electronics are covered in a separate control box 108 in this embodiment. The control box 108 Electronic will instruct user's hand The movement and position data are provided to the computer (not shown) via cable 1 09 (or printed and sent by the Consumer Property Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs) for input. This glove uses embedded electronics 104 to hold the thumb The specific movement of the finger and the finger is transmitted to the control box 108. This allows the use of hand motion and gesture recognition as inputs. When recognized by the detection of the position of the radioactive source 105, the tracking head 10 will be three-dimensional The position information is provided to the control box 108. The combined position and motion information allows the user's natural hand movements as input. Figure 2 shows the system of Figure 1 with the control box 108 and the tracking unit 10. 6 combined into a single integrated station 107 (including the tracking heads 110a and 110). The screen 1 1 4 from a PC or other equivalent computer system displays the data entered by the user by controlling the glove 104. Although the figure A single glove is shown in the figure, but instead of the actual paper size using multiple gloves, the Chinese national standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) is applicable. 543028 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (7) Examples are also included in the present invention. Within the range of the system. The system tracks all the items that can be detected in the conventional three-dimensional space, such as the bending of the fingers, hand movement, and position. This can measure yaw, tilt, and rotation. 3. Yaw can be defined as movement along a plane parallel to the ground. Yaw movement can be achieved by keeping the palms facing and parallel to the ground while rotating side to side in the horizontal plane. Tilt can be defined as parallel to the hand The axis at the top is perpendicular to the movement of the wrist, so the axis enters from the thumb and exits from below the little finger. Tilt can be achieved by moving the hand up and down while keeping the forearm parallel to the ground. Rotation defines hand rotation along an axis parallel to the ground, which enters the hand from the tip of the middle finger and passes through the wrist parallel to the forearm. Rotation can be achieved by keeping the hand straight and the palm facing the ground, turning the arm to raise the thumb and lower the little finger, or vice versa. Thumb and finger movements can be identified by sensors placed in strategic positions in the glove 102, such as two sensors in each finger and thumb abductor sensors. The induction of bending of the fingers or the extension of the glove structure due to finger movement is preferably through a strip sensor or conductive ink with variable resistance (such as, but not limited to, strain gauges on flexible substrates, carbon-based inks) Happened. Changes in finger position can be detected on the baseline bias voltage & resistance. Within the scope of the present invention, other types of sensors (preferably two joints of each finger) that sense the position of the finger can be used instead. The position of the user's hand can be tracked by the head 106.

Description of the invention (8) Hardware / software for positioning. Preferably, 10 to 16 infrared LEDs E D 105 are provided in four LEDs of 3 to 4 groups. However, changes in the number and pattern of LEDs are within the scope of the present invention. L E D (including visible light) emitted in other electromagnetic light spectrum ranges is also considered to be within the scope of the present invention. Regardless of hand orientation, it is best to place each group of LEDs in different areas around the hand to ensure that at least one set of 3 LEDs are within the line of sight of the tracking head 106. In each group, it is best to configure LEDs as a pattern of non-coplanar architectures, and ideal architectures with triangular-based pyramid architectures. These LEDs become a radiation source for the glove 102 and can be tracked by the tracking head 106. The complete three-dimensional position of the glove 102 can be determined using the tracking head 106. The tracking head 10 6 uses at least two three-dimensional detectors 1 10 a and 1 10 b, which are placed at a known distance from each other to determine the three-dimensional position of the glove. The idea is shown in Figure 5. A three-dimensional direction detector 500 is placed at point A. A similar second detector 502 is placed at point B. Points A and B are separated by a known distance d along a line generally called a baseline. The detector 500 measures the three-dimensional direction of the radiation object 504 from the point A. Similarly, the detector 50 2 measures the three-dimensional direction of the radiation object 5 0 4 from the point B. Once the two directions are determined, it is convenient to use triangulation to calculate the distance between the object and the point A or B. As can be seen in the figure, this configuration can measure the distance between the radioactive object and any of the detectors and the complete 3D position of the radiation source in 3D directions. These three-dimensional direction detectors have some advantages ... The incident radiation is not limited by the gap, and one of the plane detectors of this paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) 11--. 8 * —-: 111 1--I 1--Ϊ---n (Please read the notes on the back and fill in this page first) Order printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau Employee Consumer Cooperative of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 543028 A7 __B7 V. Description of the invention (9) The detector is always completely illuminated. In the relative range, each signal range from each plane detector is from 1 (starting at the head) to zero, and the total signal range produced by the four plane detectors is from 4 (starting at the head ) To 2. This is a significant improvement on the Marguet method with a signal range from 1/4 t h to 1. A large portion of the detector area is permanently illuminated, providing a larger usable range than previous systems. One detector for each direction is always illuminated at all angles, and it provides a normalized signal. The detectors are arranged on the same plane to minimize installation difficulty and cost. In addition, it is not necessary to align the angular position of the detector accurately. It is possible to use any type of detector element that includes an inexpensive solar battery. Expensive optics such as mirrors or lenses are not needed. It is not necessary to arrange the plane detectors quite close to each other, it needs a gap gap. Therefore, an inexpensive single plane detector can be used instead of an expensive segmented plane detector. The light hits two detectors on a single axis pair at the same angle. Therefore, any deviation from Lambertian's behavior will affect them in the same way. Because of this, and the fact that only the intensity ratio is used for the calculation, the accuracy of the measurement is not changed by the angle of incidence. In other embodiments, the emission from the light source is adjusted and detection is performed only at FM. This can provide a difference from surround radiation. In addition to this technology, the paper size of this technology is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) -12_ (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Order M Consumer Affairs Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Printed 543028 A7 B7 V.

Signals from different light sources can be distinguished using any modulation technique, such as F D M, T D M, P C M, and so on. After proper decoding on the detector side, the positions of all light sources are found at the same time. Therefore, this system can be easily extended for the simultaneous detection of many radiation sources. The number of light sources is limited only by the speed and capacity of data processing. Each group is preferably placed in a different area around the hand to ensure that it is within the line of sight of the optical tracking head. The optical tracking strip is preferably placed on the back of the strip with adjustable length.
