Institute for Telecommunications Fraunhofer HHI has officially announced its intention to demonstrate one of his latest inventions, which allows you to manage even three-dimensional (3D) TV with gestures, says Engadget HD. This technology requires no touch pad, and special glasses. Its official name - iPoint 3D.According to Paul Chozeski (Paul Chozecki), senior research fellow HHI, iPoint 3D is a control unit with two integrated cameras. The size of UNPO no more than an ordinary keyboard, and it can be installed on the ceiling above the TV. With the help of this device is its camera detects and recognizes hand gestures and transmits the received data, and a personal computer. The most interesting thing is that the system responds instantly and without contact. Moreover, its cost is quite reasonable, since the cameras themselves are not expensive and can be easily connected to a computer via FireWire. Across vdimosti, iPoint 3D technology will be realized, first of all, it is in gaming systems. As noted by Paul Chozeski, is the ideal solution for homes and indispensable tool for surgeons, as the iPoint 3D has a very important and wonderful quality - interactivity.
The cost of even approximate, Fraunhofer HHI has not yet reported, but, as expected, the Germans will talk about this technology at CeBIT '09, so wait, the fun is yet to come!
