The Cyber-Circus: A Google-Powered Gesture Interface Showcase

Gesture Control /

Earlier this year, during a keynote at the Google I/O developer conference, company representatives demonstrated an under-development HTML5- and CSS-based web application called Movi.Kanti.Revo, co-developed with Cirque du Soleil. As of a week ago, it's now available for you to try out for yourself. And notably for an embedded vision audience, it's gesture-based via the

The Gesture Interface: Its Near-Quarter-Century Old Potential Birthplace

Gesture Control /

Not to take anything away from Nintendo, who created a game console user interface mainstream breakthrough with the Wii Remote, but the company's products to at least some degree stood on the shoulders of forebears. As evidence, check out the above video, which The Verge published earlier this month. The system is called Frox, and

Google’s Vision For Embedded Vision: Numerous Impressive Technology And Product Implementations

Face Detection, Face Recognition /

Google's various efforts in the embedded vision space have caught my news-coverage attention many times in the past. There have been, for example, a series of postings related to the imperfect but still notable first stab at facial recognition in Android v4.0 "Ice Cream Sandwich," whose technology likely comes at least in part from the

“Kinect” With NASA’s Latest Mission: A Mars Rover Landing Simulation

Face Detection, Face Recognition, Gesture Control /

On Sunday evening (just a half hour beyond 4 days away, as I type this, in fact), NASA's latest Mars rover, the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL, aka "Curiosity"), will hopefully navigate to a successful landing on the Red Planet (PDF). The 11-minute video above, brought to you by the JPLnews YouTube channel, depicts key events

Leap Motion: Garnering Software Developer Devotion

Gesture Control /

Back in late May, I introduced you to Leap Motion, the hardware developer of an upcoming gesture interface peripheral for computers (and perhaps, in the future, other devices). At the time, I mentioned: The company is hoping to create a vibrant third-party software ecosystem for its hardware, and is currently accepting developer applications. Lest there

Eye Scanning For Biometrics: Increasingly Unreliable Over Time, And An Image That Mimics

Biometrics /

Eye-scanning technology is becoming increasingly pervasive as a biometric technique for individual identification, both in Hollywood ("Minority Report" and other films) and in real-life (an India case study that I wrote about last September, for example, or its use by NATO troops in Afghanistan). The generic term actually encompasses two different pattern-recognition implementations: Retinal scans,

Augmented Reality: Another Future-Forecasting Video For You To See

Augmented Reality /

Back in early April, I shared with you the futuristic concept video that accompanied the public unveiling of Google's Glass augmented reality system. I'll have more to say about Google Glass in the near future, as it received notable technology showcase at the recent Google I/O developer conference. For now, however, I thought I'd share

Samsung’s Smart TVs: Here Come The Gesture Interface APIs

Gesture Control /

Remember those camera-inclusive televisions unveiled by Samsung at January's CES, which have caused no shortage of controversy, along with at least one humorous (albeit arguably sexist) commercial? Well, Samsung's just released v3.5 of their associated SDK for third-party developers, which supports (among other things) not only Samsung's proprietary IDE but also the Eclipse IDE and
