Motion detecting system having multiple sensors
The present invention provides a motion detecting system, which includes a light source module, a plurality of image sensors and a control unit. The light source module illuminates at least one object. The image sensors respectively detect the object under the light emitted by the light source module to generate a plurality of detection results. The control unit is coupled to the image sensors, and generates a control command according to the detection results.
1. A motion detecting system, comprising:
a first gesture sensor configured to sense reflecting light of a first hand to calculate an object motion of the first hand;
a second gesture sensor configured to sense reflecting light of a second hand to generate second image data;
a navigation device configured to calculate a displacement with respect to a surface; and
a control unit, coupled to the first gesture sensor, the navigation device and the second gesture sensor, the control unit configured to
output a cursor control command for controlling a cursor movement according to the displacement calculated by the navigation device, and
control the cursor movement according to the object motion,
wherein dots of the cursor movement per inch object motion of the first hand calculated by the first gesture sensor are larger than dots of the cursor movement per inch displacement calculated by the navigation device, and
the second image data outputted by the second gesture sensor is not configured to control the cursor movement.
2. The motion detecting system of claim 1 , wherein the control unit is further configured to receive a first posture of the first hand from the first gesture sensor.
3. The motion detecting system of claim 2 , wherein the control unit is further configured to identify a second posture, which is different from the first posture, of the second hand according to the second image data.
4. The motion detecting system of claim 3 , wherein the control unit is further configured to output a gesture control command according to the second posture configured to control zooming, scrolling, paging or clicking.
5. The motion detecting system of claim 3 , wherein the control unit is further configured to ignore the first posture of the second hand in identifying the second posture according to the second image data.
6. The motion detecting system of claim 5 , wherein the control unit is configured to ignore the first posture of the second hand for a predetermined time interval.
7. The motion detecting system of claim 1 , wherein sensing ranges of the first gesture sensor and the second gesture sensor are partially overlapped or not overlapped with each other.
8. The motion detecting system of claim 1 , wherein sampling rates of the first gesture sensor and the second gesture sensor are different from each other.
9. A motion detecting system, comprising:
a gesture sensor configured to sense reflecting light of a hand to calculate an object motion of the hand;
a mouse device configured to calculate a displacement with respect to a surface; and
a control unit, coupled to the gesture sensor and the mouse device, the control unit configured to
output a cursor control command for controlling a cursor movement according to the displacement calculated by the mouse device, and
control the cursor movement according to the object motion,
wherein dots of the cursor movement per inch object motion of the hand calculated by the gesture sensor are larger than dots of the cursor movement per inch displacement calculated by the mouse device.
10. The motion detecting system of claim 9 , wherein the control unit is further configured to output a gesture control command according to a posture of the hand received from the gesture sensor.
11. The motion detecting system of claim 10 , wherein the gesture control command is configured to control zooming, scrolling, paging or clicking.
12. The motion detecting system of claim 9 , wherein the gesture sensor is arranged in a handheld electronic device or a portable electronic device.
13. A motion detecting system, comprising:
an image sensor configured to sense reflecting light of an object to calculate an object motion of the object;
a navigation device configured to calculate a displacement with respect to a surface; and
a control unit, coupled to the image sensor and the navigation device, the control unit configured to
output a cursor control command for controlling a cursor movement according to the displacement calculated by the navigation device, and
control the cursor movement according to the object motion,
wherein dots of the cursor movement per inch object motion of the object calculated by the image sensor are larger than dots of the cursor movement per inch displacement calculated by the navigation device.
14. The motion detecting system of claim 12 , wherein the image sensor is arranged in a handheld electronic device or a portable electronic device.
