Abstract
A method for controlling an electronic equipment and a wearable device are provided, respectively. The method for controlling the electronic equipment includes the following steps. An inertial signal is detected. A gesture is obtained by dividing the inertial signal or classifying the inertial signal. A controlling command is outputted based on the gesture to control the electronic equipment, such as a desktop device, a portable device or the wearable device.
Claims17
A method for controlling an electronic equipment, comprising:
- detecting an inertial signal;
- obtaining a gesture by dividing the inertial signal or classifying the inertial signal, wherein the inertial signal is classified into a first group and a second group, and the second group is classified into a first sub-group and a second sub-group, the first group is a non-movement state, the second group is a movement state, the first sub-group is an exercise movement state, and the second sub-group is an exercise-gesture state;
- and
- outputting a controlling command according to the gesture to control the electronic equipment,
- wherein the step of obtaining the gesture includes:
- dividing the inertial signal to be a first sub-signal and a second sub-signal;
- extracting a plurality of first features of the first sub-signal and a plurality of second features of the second sub-signal;
- and
- recognizing the gesture related to one of the first sub-signal and the second sub-signal according to the first features and the second features.
A wearable device, comprising:
- a detecting unit, for detecting an inertial signal;
- and
- a processing unit, for obtaining a gesture by dividing the inertial signal or classifying the inertial, wherein the inertial signal is classified into a first group and a second group, and the second group is classified into a first sub-group and a second sub-group, the first group is a non-movement state, the second group is a movement state, the first sub-group is an exercise movement state, and the second sub-group is an exercise-gesture state, and for outputting a controlling command according to the gesture to control electronic equipment,
- wherein the processing unit includes:
- a separator, for dividing the inertial signal into a first sub-signal and a second sub-signal;
- a feature extractor, for extracting a plurality of first features of the first sub-signal and a plurality of second features of the second sub-signal;
- and
- a recognizer, for recognizing the gesture related to one of the first sub-signal and second sub-signal according to the first features and the second features.
