Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented system having memory, processor, and data storage subsystems that facilitates a user interface, the computer-implemented system comprising; a tracking component to detect motion of a group of moving pixels included in two or more images by employing multiple hypotheses on the two or more images utilizing two or more trackers to track a detected object, such that a second tracker continues tracking the detected object upon failure of a first tracker, wherein the tracking component detects motion when a sum of absolute differences of at least one pixel within the two or more images is above a specified threshold, wherein a vision algorithm comprising 3-D tracking and 3-D depth computations is employed in association with the tracking component; at least two video capturing sources configured to receive a user command to control the computer-implemented system, wherein the user command is received from a gesture extracted from the group of moving pixels included in the two or more images captured by the at least two video capturing sources; and a 3-D imaging component that receives the gesture in a form of a gesture image, processes the gesture image, and interprets the gesture image to execute the user command for control of the computer-implemented system via a plurality of object hypothesis models which detect associated multiple objects and remove any redundantly tracked objects.
