    摘要: A gesture recognition interface for use in controlling self-service machines and other devices is disclosed. A gesture is defined as motions and kinematic poses generated by humans, animals, or machines. Specific body features are tracked, and static and motion gestures are interpreted. Motion gestures are defined as a family of parametrically delimited oscillatory motions, modeled as a linear-in-parameters dynamic system with added geometric constraints to allow for real-time recognition using a small amount of memory and processing time. A linear least squares method is preferably used to determine the parameters which represent each gesture. Feature position measure is used in conjunction with a bank of predictor bins seeded with the gesture parameters, and the system determines which bin best fits the observed motion. Recognizing static pose gestures is preferably performed by localizing the body/object from the rest of the image, describing that object, and identifying that description. The disclosure details methods for gesture recognition, as well as the overall architecture for using gesture recognition to control of devices, including self-service machines.

    摘要: A therapeutic exercise apparatus for providing ambulation and mobility physical therapy includes a flat platform and two parallel handrails with ladder steps arranged on the platform at the place where the patient would place their feet, so that the gait of the patient is controlled and increased movement of the patient's feet is required in order to permit the patient to traverse the length of the platform. A balance beam extending along the length of the platform can be placed on the platform in lieu of the ladder steps. The steps are removably attached to the platform by means of dowel pins fitting in corresponding holes bored in the surface of the platform.

    摘要: A system for recognizing various human and creature motion gaits and behaviors is presented. These behaviors are defined as combinations of “gestures” identified on various parts of a body in motion. For example, the leg gestures generated when a person runs are different than when a person walks. The system described here can identify such differences and categorize these behaviors. Gestures, as previously defined, are motions generated by humans, animals, or machines. Multiple gestures on a body (or bodies) are recognized simultaneously and used in determining behaviors. If multiple bodies are tracked by the system, then overall formations and behaviors (such as military goals) can be determined.

    摘要: A financial system and method for a stored value e-card financial management system using a worldwide financial network to deposit funds into an e-card account in one country and withdraw funds from a networked automated teller machine in another country. A dual-card package containing two e-cards and a personal identification number is purchased at a point-of-sale location, and then activated by depositing funds into the e-card system. A first load-card is used for activating and reloading the e-card system, and a second debit-card provides withdrawal capabilities when the account balance is sufficient to fund the request and any associated fees.

    摘要: A system and method tracks the movements of a driver or passenger in a vehicle (ground, water, air, or other) and controls devices in accordance with position, motion, and/or body or hand gestures or movements. According to one embodiment, an operator or passenger uses the invention to control comfort or entertainment features such the heater, air conditioner, lights, mirror positions or the radio/CD player using hand gestures. An alternative embodiment facilitates the automatic adjustment of car seating restraints based on head position. Yet another embodiment is used to determine when to fire an airbag (and at what velocity or orientation) based on the position of a person in a vehicle seat. The invention may also be used to control systems outside of the vehicle. The on-board sensor system would be used to track the driver or passenger, but when the algorithms produce a command for a desired response, that response (or just position and gesture information) could be transmitted via various methods (wireless, light, whatever) to other systems outside the vehicle to control devices located outside the vehicle. For example, this would allow a person to use gestures inside the car to interact with a kiosk located outside of the car.
