Method of controlling an object by eye motion for electronic device
View Patent ↗The present invention provides a method of controlling a virtual object or instruction for a computing device comprising: detecting a user eye motion by a detecting device; generating a control signal in responsive to the user eye motion detection; controlling an object displayed on a display in responsive to the control signal to execute the instruction. The user eye motion is detected by CMOS or CCD.
1. A method of controlling a virtual object by eye motion of a user for an electronic computing device having a display comprising:
providing at least one image sensor for said display of said electronic computing device to capture image of said user in front of said display, wherein said at least one image sensor includes CMOS or CCD sensor, wherein said at least one image sensor provided to detect eye motion of said user to output a first control signal to a virtual object without touching said display, said user being located in front of said at least one image sensor and keeping said display with a distance;
capturing images of said eye motion of said user without touching said display by said at least one image sensor;
analyzing image change of said eye motion;
generating a first control signal in responsive to said image change of said eye motion detection;
providing a vocal control through a microphone and a vocal control software of said electronic computing device to output a second control signal through voice recognition; and
controlling said virtual object displayed on said display in responsive to said first, second or combination control signal without touching said display of said computing device.
2. The method of claim 1 , further providing infrared ray (IR) source for detecting said user.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein said control signal includes cursor movement, character input, application instruction, webpage movement or image size change.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein dual light sources are used to project two spatially separated spots at user's pupil, and said dual light sources are constructed by side by side on a panel said portable device.
5. A method of controlling a virtual object by eye motion and figure motion of a user for an electronic computing device having a display comprising:
providing at least one image sensor for said display of said electronic computing device to capture image of said user in front of said display, wherein said at least one image sensor includes CMOS or CCD sensor, wherein said at least one image sensor provided to detect eye motion of said user to output a first control signal to a virtual object without touching said display, said user being located in front of said at least one image sensor and keeping said display with a distance;
capturing images of said eye motion of said user without touching said display by said at least one image sensor;
analyzing image change of said eye motion;
generating a first control signal in responsive to said image change of said eye motion detection;
capturing images of said figure motion of said user without touching said display by said at least one image sensor;
analyzing image change of said figure motion;
generating a second control signal in responsive to said image change of said figure motion detection; and
controlling said virtual object displayed on said display in responsive to said first, second or combination control signal without touching said display of said computing device.
6. The method of claim 5 , further providing infrared ray (IR) source for detecting said user.
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein said control signal includes cursor movement, character input, application instruction, webpage movement or image size change.
8. The method of claim 5 , wherein dual light sources are used to project two spatially separated spots at user's pupil, and said dual light sources are constructed by side by side on a panel said portable device.
9. A method of controlling a virtual object by eye motion and finger motion of a user for an electronic computing device having a display comprising:
providing at least one image sensor for said display of said electronic computing device to capture image of said user in front of said display, wherein said at least one image sensor includes CMOS or CCD sensor, wherein said at least one image sensor provided to detect eye motion of said user to output a first control signal to a virtual object without touching said display, said user being located in front of said at least one image sensor and keeping said display with a distance;
capturing images of said eye motion of said user without touching said display by said at least one image sensor;
analyzing image change of said eye motion;
generating a first control signal in responsive to said image change of said eye motion detection;
capturing images of said finger motion of said user without touching said display by said at least one image sensor;
analyzing image change of said finger motion;
generating a second control signal in responsive to said image change of said finger motion detection; and
controlling said virtual object displayed on said display in responsive to said first, second or combination control signal without touching said display of said computing device.
10. The method of claim 9 , further providing infrared ray (IR) source for detecting said user.
11. The method of claim 9 , wherein said control signal includes cursor movement, character input, application instruction, webpage movement or image size change.
12. The method of claim 9 , wherein dual light sources are used to project two spatially separated spots at user's pupil, and said dual light sources are constructed by side by side on a panel said portable device.
