Abstract:
The technology disclosed relates to automatically (e.g., programmatically) initializing predictive information for tracking a complex control object (e.g., hand, hand and tool combination, robot end effector) based upon information about characteristics of the object determined from sets of collected observed information. Automated initialization techniques obviate the need for special and often bizarre start-up rituals (place your hands on the screen at the places indicated during a full moon, and so forth) required by conventional techniques. In implementations, systems can refine initial predictive information to reflect an observed condition based on comparison of the observed with an analysis of sets of collected observed information.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of initializing predictive information that models a complex control object in a three dimensional (3D) sensory space, the method including:\n accessing observed information including a set of contour points corresponding to surface points along an outline of a complex control object in a three dimensional (3D) sensory space; sensing an actual position of at least one complex control object in a first reference frame of the 3D sensory space; sensing an apparent position of the complex control object, wherein the apparent position sensed is different from the actual position sensed; wherein the complex control object has not moved in the 3D sensory space; calculating a second reference frame that accounts for apparent position of the complex control object; calculating a transformation that renders the actual position in the first reference frame and the apparent position in the second reference frame into a common reference frame; and transforming the actual and apparent positions of the complex control object into the common reference frame, whereby the sensed apparent position is transformed to an actual position and the set of contour points is transformed to a normalized orientation of the control object; searching a plurality of observed information archetypes that represent poses of the control object in the normalized orientation, the poses including arrangement of features of the complex control object and a perspective of observing the complex control object, and selecting an archetype; and initializing predictive information that models the complex control object from initialization parameters associated with the selected archetype.
