【CEATEC JAPAN 2008】HITACHI Gesture operation TV

[jhk2022]

We have own solution for Gesture Recognition Interface with Stereo Camera.

We don't use prime sense solution.

I like the red Cylon/Robot eye underneath...watching TV while it's watching you! :)

[CALOUCALEB]

I HAVE 2 HITACHI TVS, 4 YEARS OLD AND IT BROKE!!! THE FUNNY PART? THEY NO LONGER MAKE THE PARTS TO REPAIR IT. DON'T EVER BUY A HITACHI. IS JUST GARBAGE.

[scrappyduke]

cool...but what happens when some one walks in front of the tv

[bandar0554129729]

يحبنيله هو وضرسه المكسور

[FATLACE420]

lol imagine watching porn and while you're jacking off it just goes back to the previous menu, or switches the channel.. I'd be pissed.

[smil8888]

well, using rly loud speakers and suddenly u accidentaly twitch your hand, and your ears are gone. Magic !

[mintehy]

So, I have to stand up and walk then I face the tv and do all that movements every time i decided to change the channel if am sitting in the corner.

I think remote easier

[abomo3tzz]

stuipd tech!!!

who will keep waving his hand like that!!???

[AB0BA]

its nice but even though i think it is better with remote

[123Kenge]

where are the video inputs on the hitachi TVs?

[noname69690]

This tv is made for me. I'm bored of searching the remote every time

[gan0nsl4y3r]

no more losing the remote

[bololeszcz]

@gan0nsl4y3r Have to admit - true! But what about people with disabilities after accidents, where they lose let's say one arm, hope there will be some kind of solutions for them as well. It's great we live in age of technology renaissance!

I can finally use the force =]

テレビをセキュリティシステムとして使えないかな。

[Japancreatedtheworld]

画面にどんな表示の仕方がされるかによって操作性が随分違って来­る。それと,やはり片手で出来ないと意味がない。両手だと,どう­かなあ〜って気がする。

[GodPiggyX]

When you wank off the TV automatically switches off.

[britoca]

buttons are quicker...

[kitedh]

thats pretty cool

[dmix09]

This doesn't impress me much now that i've seen Natal

[Sonyoooo3]

Boy its not easy standing and arms up and watching at same time? why not use the same system of Ipod or Iphone but instead its just making a remote control system.

[xtracooltech]

The gestures this understands are very basic. To be able to play games, you need finger and hand articulation. That is accomplished with LtWv.

[SamusAran4Pikachu]

nintendo is going to use this for the ultimate gaming

[untinel]

技術はすごいけど全然直感的ではないね

ただリモコン探して押す手間が省けるぐらい

[kafeguru]

私も同感

[monkeymox]

Hah! Douglas adams talks about this sort of thing in Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy!

[greatwebspider]

does this mean that we can change the channels in airport/resturants and other public places without remote.

[lildancinchica]

its programed to kno who is controling it so if your not programed in you can't control it.

[hudas1329]

proud to be an hitachi group,,,

[tehcheeseitman]

now all they have to do is make see-thru tv screens and i can watch minority report on my minority report style tv screen(lol)

that would be cool though... a see through tv screen?

[ExploreYourMindNC]

no more remote!

[ronatola]

ps2 eyetoy anyone?  old news

[chapmasi]

Its just a movement detector linked to system interface. Yea real high tech.....

[rihoko]

wow.. very futuristic interface.. integrated with aircon, lights .. we're getting closer to those homes we see in sci-fi shows huh.

[richard1000garcia300]

Insane! That is a hell of a good job. I can't wait until I get my hands on it. Woo!

[kreative15]

You are going to waiting a couple years at at less you go to japan or buy it from their.
