ACTION RECOGNITION METHOD, ACTION RECOGNITION DEVICE AND RECORDING MEDIUM RECORDING ACTION RECOGNITION PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To shorten the time required for image processings and analysis and to improve the reliability of action recognition.;SOLUTION: An input/output device 3 receives three-dimensional position information from a sensor attached to liquid crystal shutter spectacles 1 and receives image information from plural cameras 7-1-7-N. The input/output device 3 specifies a position indicated by the three-dimensional position information on respective images, selects a prescribed range with the specified position as a reference point and limits an area to be the object of the image processing. The input/output device 3 extracts the area of a user by the selected range on the respective images, divides the area of the user for each body part, obtains the three-dimensional positions of the respective body parts of the user based on the plural images including the same body parts and estimates the action of the user.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2001,JPO
