FraunhoferGesture recognition through ultrasound
Fraunhofer IPMS is working on an approach for the contactless, three-dimensional detection of distances, movements and gestures for communication with robots and in operating theaters, for example. A new class of micromechanical ultrasonic transducers is being used for this purpose.
<p>From Fraunhofer's point of view, potential fields of application for ultrasound-based, contactless motion detection can be found in automation and security technology as well as in medical technology, the automotive industry or entertainment and household electronics.</p> © Fraunhofer / Shutterstock
