Abstract:
The technology disclosed relates to automatically interpreting a gesture of a control object in a three dimensional sensor space by sensing a movement of the control object in the three dimensional sensor space, sensing orientation of the control object, defining a control plane tangential to a surface of the control object and interpreting the gesture based on whether the movement of the control object is more normal to the control plane or more parallel to the control plane.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of automatically interpreting a gesture of a control object, in a three-dimensional (3D) sensor space using a 3D sensor, as a first gesture or a second gesture, the method including:\n defining a control plane that remains tangent to a surface of the control object throughout a sensed movement of the control object in any direction in the 3D sensor space, the control plane being defined by an orientation of the control object, as sensed by a video camera of the 3D sensor; interpreting the gesture of the control object as the first gesture or the second gesture by comparing a direction of a sensed trajectory of the movement of the control object to (i) a normal vector that is normal to the defined control plane and (ii) a surface of the defined control plane, wherein:\n the gesture is the first gesture when the direction of the trajectory of the movement of the control object is within a pre-determined range of the normal vector of the control plane; and \n the gesture is the second gesture when the direction of the trajectory of the movement of the control object is parallel to the surface of the control plane, within a pre-determined range, \n such that the gesture is the first gesture when the direction of the movement of the trajectory of the control object is more normal to the surface of the control plane than parallel to the surface of the control plane and the gesture is the second gesture when the direction of the movement of the trajectory of the control object is more parallel to the surface of the control plane than normal to the surface of the control plane.
