Outline of Final Research Achievements

Touch panels have been spreading due to the increase of smartphones, tablets, etc. However, some people have difficulty using touch panels for various reasons, and this has caused a digital gap. In this study, we developed an interface that tracks motions of arbitrary parts which are selected with a mouse from a webcam screen. This is composed of a virtual keyboard and a virtual mouse, which utilize a webcam and a microcontroller, instead of ordinary keyboards and mice. An arbitrary motion of a user functions as a trigger for the interface, through the analysis of moving pictures taken by a webcam. Such a trigger activates the virtual keyboard and mouse. Therefore, it became possible to operate a computer with moving pictures taken by a webcam. Since it gets triggered only by parts which a user can move voluntarily, it was indicated that it is possible to provide an interface that detects users’ purposed motions.
