Abstract
Embodiments of vehicle gesture recognition systems and methods are disclosed. An example vehicle gesture recognition system comprises a data interface configured for receiving 2d image data from a 2d sensor and/or from a portable device camera via a portable device interface. Additionally or alternatively, the data interface is configured for receiving gesture data indicating a gesture. A vehicle processing unit is configured for controlling user interfacing with a user interface based on the gestures recognized from the 2d image data and/or as indicated by the gesture data.
Claims15
A vehicle gesture recognition system, comprising:
- a data interface configured for receiving two-dimensional, 2d, image data of at least one field of view within the vehicle;
- and
- a vehicle processing unit configured for
- recognizing a gesture from the received 2d image data, and
- controlling user interfacing with a user interface based on the recognized gesture.
A vehicle gesture recognition system, comprising:
- a data interface configured for receiving gesture data, the gesture data indicating a gesture;
- a portable device interface being configured for establishing a data connection between a portable device and the data interface, wherein the data interface is further configured for receiving the gesture data via the data connection from a portable device application executed on the portable device;
- and
- a vehicle processing unit configured for controlling user interfacing with a user interface based on the gesture indicated by the gesture data.
A method of gesture recognition in a vehicle, comprising:
- receiving 2d image data of at least one field of view within the vehicle;
- in a vehicle processing unit recognizing a gesture from the received 2d image data;
- and
- in the vehicle processing unit controlling user interfacing with a user interface based on the recognized gesture.
A method of gesture recognition in a vehicle, comprising:
- establishing a data connection between a portable device and a portable device interface;
- receiving gesture data indicating a gesture via the data connection from a portable device application executed on the portable device;
- and
- in a vehicle processing unit controlling user interfacing with a user interface based on the gesture indicated by the gesture data.
