A method of controlling a device including a depth camera, the method comprising:
- acquiring a depth image using the depth camera;
- changing the device from a first state into a second state by analyzing the acquired depth image with reference to a memory;
- determining whether a user's finger points to the device with reference to the memory;
- changing the device from the second state into a third state based on determining that the user's finger points to the device;
- tracking an end point of the user's finger;
- and
- displaying a target point having a position changeable in response to the tracked end point of the user's finger.
A device comprising:
- a memory configured to store one or more commands;
- a depth camera configured to capture at least a user's hand;
- a display;
- and
- a controller configured to control the memory, the depth camera and the display,
- wherein the controller is further configured to:
- control the depth camera to capture at least the user's hand;
- and
- control the display to output a visual feedback changeable based on the captured user's hand.
