Abstract:
A method and system are disclosed for recognizing an object, the method including emitting one or more arranged patterns of infrared rays (IR) from an infrared emitter towards a projection region, the one or more arranged patterns of infrared rays forming unique dot patterns; mapping the one or more arranged patterns of infrared rays on the operation region to generate a reference image; capturing an IR image and a RGB image of an object with a wearable device, the wearable device including an infrared (IR) camera and a RGB camera; extracting IR dots from the IR image and determining a match between the extracted IR dots and the reference image; determining a position of the RGB image on the reference image; and mapping the position of the RGB image to a coordinate on the projection region.
