Abstract
Provided is a volumetric image display apparatus for providing a user interface using a visual indicator, the apparatus including a recognition unit to recognize an input object in a predetermined three-dimensional (3D) recognition space, a visual indicator location determining unit to determine a location of the visual indicator in a predetermined volumetric image display space, based on the input object, and a display unit to display the visual indicator in the predetermined volumetric image display space, based on the location of the visual indicator.
Claims31
A volumetric image display device for providing a user interface using a visual indicator, the device comprising:
- a recognition unit having a capacity to recognize an input object in a predetermined three-dimensional (3D) recognition space;
- a visual indicator location determining unit having a capacity to determine a location of the visual indicator in a predetermined volumetric image display space based on the input object recognized by the recognition unit;
- and
- a display unit having a capacity to display the visual indicator in the predetermined volumetric image display space based on the location of the visual indicator.
A volumetric image display method of providing a user interface using a visual indicator, the method comprising:
- recognizing an input object in a predetermined three-dimensional (3D) recognition space;
- determining a location of the visual indicator in a predetermined volumetric image display space based on the input object;
- and
- displaying the visual indicator in the predetermined volumetric image display space based on the location of the visual indicator.
A volumetric image display method, comprising:
- determining a position of a visual indicator in a predetermined volumetric image display space, based on recognition of an input control object manipulated by a user and a determined position of the input control object manipulated by the user;
- and
- displaying the visual indicator in the predetermined volumetric image display space on a user interface at a display position based on the position of the visual indicator.
A display, comprising:
- a predetermined volumetric image display space;
- an input control object manipulated by a user and displayed in the display space;
- and
- a visual indicator displayed in the display space at a display position determined by an object position of the input control object.
