ABSTRACT
This paper describes a user interface for video chat that is capable of panning, tilting, and zooming (PTZ) operation using head tracking. The approach is to map a captured 3D position from head tracker to PTZ parameters of a remote camera so that a user can intuitively change the view just as people change their sight by moving their head. The preliminary user study gave encouraging results and clarified the point for further improvement.

Single Object Long-term Tracker for Smart Control of a PTZ camera
ICDSC '14: Proceedings of the International Conference on Distributed Smart CamerasIn this paper, we present a single-object long-term tracker that supports high appearance changes in the tracked target, occlusions, and is also capable of recovering a target lost during the tracking process. The initial motivation was real time ...
Low-cost head position tracking for gaze point estimation
PETRA '12: Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on PErvasive Technologies Related to Assistive EnvironmentsIn this paper, we present a low-cost solution for real-time tracking of a human user's head position with respect to a video display source for eye gaze estimation in an assistive setting. The solution utilizes a wearable headset equipped with sensors ...
New Methods for 3-D Measurement for PTZ Camera Control on a Flat Road Surface
ICICTA '10: Proceedings of the 2010 International Conference on Intelligent Computation Technology and Automation - Volume 02Two new methods for 3-D measurement for PTZ camera control are proposed. We assume there are two cameras: one PTZ and one fixed. If one point is chosen in the image from fixed camera, pan and tilt are controlled to place that point in the center of PTZ ...
