Write in Air

摘要

It becomes a painful task for inputing characters into devices such as XBox connected to a television with no keyboard and mouse attached to it. Write-in-Air is a proof-of-concept technology that will have a television or the display screen with a web-cam attached to it, the user can write the intended character in air by using his finger or a bright object. The gestures will be captured by the camera and fed to a hand-writing recognizer which can list recognition results onto the screen for final selection by the user. The demo shown at TechFest had a system that had a vocabulary of English and numerical characters as well as for Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters as well.
