Hitachi Chooses Canesta’s 3D Sensor Chip to Power New Gesture Controlled TV
Canesta announced its collaboration with Hitachi to create a television that can be controlled by open-air hand gestures, rather than by the familiar hand-held remote control. The prototype, which uses a tiny Canesta 3D sensor for gesture recognition and a Hitachi TV can be controlled at distances up to 3 meters (9.8 feet) by simple hand gestures. For example, a rapid wave will power up the set, and a circular motion will change either the video source or the channel.
