US 10,254,893 B2 · Operating apparatus, control method therefor, and storage medium storing program

Abstract

An image on an operating surface is captured, and first image data are acquired. A gesture performed by a user on the operating surface is recognized on the basis of the first image data. Whether there is a touch panel sensor configured to acquire coordinates of positions touched by an operation performed by a user on the operating surface or not is determined. In a case where the determination unit determines that there is the touch panel sensor on the operating surface, coordinates of the position on the operating surface touched by the operation performed by the user are identified on the basis of coordinates of a position detected by the touch panel sensor instead of a recognized user's gesture.

Dependent claims

An operating apparatus comprising:

an image acquisition unit configured to capture an image on an operating surface and acquire image data;
a recognition unit configured to recognize a gesture performed by a user on the operating surface on the basis of the image data;
a determination unit configured to determine whether a touch panel sensor configured to detect positions touched by a user on the operating surface is connected or not;
and
a control unit configured to recognize a touch operation, in a case where the determination unit determines that the touch panel sensor is connected on the basis of a position detected by the touch panel sensor, and to recognize a gesture operation based on a user's gesture recognized by the recognition unit, in a case where the determination unit determines that the touch panel sensor is not connected.
