Bringing Kinect-style UI to any OEM that wants it.
Israeli firm eyeSight already offers its hand-waving tech to app developers on Android, iOS and other mobile platforms. Now it's making the tech available to TV makers, and chipset and SOC manufacturers to be pre-installed on the device or integrated post-market.
The SDK is available for Android, Linux, Windows as well as other operating systems.
The technology enables the use of a variety of hand gestures to switch channels, play games, flip through photos in a gallery or videos on YouTube, and more.
Set-top-boxes which are already camera-enabled for video conferencing solutions can add the tech using the same 2D camera.
“It is clear that in 2012, connected media consumption solutions will play a greater role in the digital living room environment,” said Gideon Shmuel, eyeSight’s CEO.
