Comparison of active proximity radars for the wearable devices

摘要

Two methods of object position and movement estimation in relation to the user of smart glasses were investigated. An active infrared and ultrasonic methods of the obstacle detection were presented and compared. Application of these methods depend on active transducers type (physical medium used), geometry and surface properties of detected objects and their movement direction and speed. In the article properties of both detectors were compared and applicability of both methods in mobile, battery operated environment such as eGlasses platform were compared.
