Gesture Based Object Identification Apparatus and Method in a Real Time Locating System

摘要

A method of operating a real time locating system (RTLS) includes: obtaining object gesture pattern data for an RTLS tagged object, in response to a gesture pattern motion of the RTLS tagged object; receiving camera gesture pattern data from a video camera, in response to the gesture pattern motion of the RTLS tagged object; determining that the object gesture pattern data matches the camera gesture pattern data; and sending the RTLS coordinates of the RTLS tagged object to a monitoring device, in response to the object gesture pattern data matching the camera gesture pattern data.
