This document discusses computer vision and its uses for interactive computer graphics. Computer vision involves acquiring, processing, analyzing and understanding images from the real world in order to produce information. It allows computers to interpret user movements and gestures through algorithms like tracking, shape recognition and motion analysis. These visual algorithms enable interactive applications where the computer can track and respond to both large and small objects in real-time, creating new possibilities for human-computer interaction. Examples provided demonstrate how computer vision can be used to track a user's hand gestures to control a television interface.

- 3. What is computer Vision? Computer vision is a field that includes methods for acquiring, processing, analyzing and understanding images and high-dimensional data from the real world in order to produce numerical or symbolic information
- 4. Why we use computer Vision? • Human-computer interaction • Computers interpret user movements, gestures and glances via fundamental visual algorithms. • Visual algorithms: tracking, shape recognition and motion analysis • Interactive apps : response time is fast, algorithms work for different subject and environment and economical.
- 5. Tracking Objects • Different methods and techniques are used to track objects from the real world • Interactive applications can track two types of objects – 1. Large objects 2. Small objects
- 6. Large Object Tracking • Large objects like hand or body tracked. • Object is in front of camera. • Image properties (Image moments), and artificial retina chip do the trick.
- 7. Small Object Tracking • Large objects tracking techniques not adequate. • Track small objects through template based technique – normalized correlation
- 8. Normalized Correlation • Examine the fit of an object template to every position in the analyzed image. • The Location of maximum correlation gives the position of the candidate hand. • The value of that correlation indicates how likely the image region is to be a hand.
- 9. Example : Television Remote • To turn on the television, the user holds up his hand. • A graphical hand icon with sliders and buttons appears on the graphics display. • Move hand to control the hand icon
- 10. Conclusion • Simple vision algorithms with restrictive interactivity allows human-computer interaction possible. • Advances in algorithms and availability of low-cost hardware will make interactive human-computer interactions possible in everyday life.
