Virtual touch recognition apparatus and method for correcting recognition error thereof

Abstract

A virtual touch recognition apparatus and a method of correcting a recognition error of the virtual touch recognition apparatus utilize a user's eye position and an image display position or projection position of a head-up display (HUD). The virtual touch recognition apparatus includes a gesture recognizer detecting the eye position of a user, the head-up display projecting an image on the image display position in front of the user, and a controller correcting a recognition error of a virtual touch based on the eye position of the user and the image display position. The apparatus and method can minimize a virtual touch recognition error occurring depending on the user's eye position and the image display position of the HUD when gesture control technology using the virtual touch is applied to a vehicle.
