METHOD FOR CONTACTLESS CONTROLLING MOUSE CURSOR Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC G06F3/33 G06F3/42 G06K9/62 G09F9/00 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: method for contactless controlling the mouse cursor is proposed. According to the method, the location of the interest area is determined on the convex shape. The convex form is a man's head, the interest area is a man's face area between the eyebrows and the lower lip. The digitized image of the said convex shape is obtained by a video camera. After the said stored brightness pattern of the interest area is stored in the form of a matrix, the location of the five reference points is determined within the said stored brightness pattern of the interest area, and then the plurality of the digitized video images is registered. The two-dimensional coordinates of the said reference points are determined in each of the said plurality of the video images by comparing the stored brightness pattern matrix of the interest area and the registered brightness pattern matrix of the interest area, and then the two-dimensional coordinates of the said reference points are used for controlling the mouse cursor.

EFFECT: increasing the robustness of tracking the movement of the user's head by raising the productivity of the system and reducing the level of the object allocating errors.
