Crunchfish launches XR Skeleton Stereo and interaction with two hands
Crunchfish is extremely proud to showcase a pre-release of the latest gesture solution – XR Skeleton Stereo – that enables high precision tracking and accuracy in all 3 dimensions due to the dual-camera input. The new solution also provides tracking of 42 points simultaneously (21 points on each hand) with high precision measurement of the distance between the camera sensors and each point of the hands.
As one of the first companies in the world, Crunchfish has launched a two-hand tracking solution based on dual camera configurations that often is used in AR/VR devices. With two wide-angle camera sensors, the augmented reality experience as well as the interaction space becomes fantastic. Compared to the previous released product – XR Skeleton – that is designed for a single camera configuration and one-hand interaction, the new – XR Skeleton Stereo – supports two-hand tracking with dual cameras and enables high precision measurement of the distance between the camera sensors and each point of the hands.
“Based on Crunchfish’s Skeleton platform, we have developed a solution that is extremely capable and fully meet the requirements on immersive interaction in consumer AR-glasses. I am very proud of the team-effort that made XR Skeleton Stereo possible”, says Joakim Nydemark, CEO of Crunchfish Gesture Interaction.
The areas of use for XR Skeleton Stereo are, among others, in AR/VR, to interact with virtual objects as shown in this concept video provided some time ago. It also provides new ways of tracking hands at a distance and controlling various screen functions and menus. By identifying all the moving parts and contours of the hand and then linking these points (coordinates) together into a skeletal structure, interaction with objects as in the real world becomes possible.
“With XR Skeleton Stereo, we have taken our Skeleton platform and hand tracking even closer to perfection and now enable two-hand tracking with millimeter precision using dual cameras. The development of XR Skeleton Stereo truly demonstrates technical prowess and the versatility of our Skeleton platform”, says Daniel Milesson, R&D Director, Crunchfish Gesture Interaction.
