A method to provide a user interface, the method may be controlled by one or more controllers and may include one or more acts of obtaining image information from a sequence of images of a user; analyzing the image information to recognize the user; recognizing first and second reference objects at least one of which corresponding with respective body parts of the user from the image information; determining whether a first reference object has been placed over or is within a threshold scaled distance of a second reference object; calculating an interaction time between the first reference object and the second reference object when it is determined that the first reference object has been placed over or is within the threshold scaled distance of the second reference object; comparing the interaction time with a threshold reference time; and performing an action in accordance with results of the comparison.

User interface system and method of operation thereof

A system of authorizing access to a resource including a processor obtaining sensor information related to at least two users from one or more sensors, the sensor information including one or more of image information and proximity information of each of the at least two users. Further, an act of identifying current gestures is performed for each of the at least two users in accordance with the sensor information. The current gestures may be compared with pre-stored gesture information related to predetermined gestures and an order of the predetermined gestures. Further, access to the resource may be authorized when it is determined that the current gestures are in accordance with the predetermined gestures and the order of the predetermined gestures.

Multi-person gestural authentication and authorization system and method of operation thereof

A server to perform a selected therapy on a user. The server may include a processor which may obtain activity information (AI) including information related to one or more of augmented-reality (AR) activity information, AR anatomical feature information, and range-of-motion (ROM) information; obtain user information including information related to one or more of the anatomy and physiology of the user; determine expected range-of-motion (EROM) information in accordance with the AI and the user information; track selected body parts (SBPs) of the user corresponding with the AR anatomical feature information; and/or render one or more augmented-reality limbs (ARLs) in relation with one or more corresponding SBPs of the user on a display of the system.

Augmented-reality range-of-motion therapy system and method of operation thereof

A secure communication method including: obtaining sensor information of at least one user, the sensor information including one or more of image information or depth information; recognizing at least one gesture in accordance with the sensor information of the at least one user; determining whether each of the recognized at least one gesture is a public gesture or a private gesture in accordance with a zone where the gesture was performed, the zone being selected from a plurality of zones; and authorizing access to a resource when it is determined that the at least one gesture is determined to be the public gesture or the private gesture.
