Fingerspelling text entry

This invention describes a method for typing text into an Augmented Reality (AR) system using hand gestures. An AR headset's cameras detect fingerspelling signs made by the user, converting these into text that appears within the AR display. The provided claims specifically detail how the system recognizes gestures to begin and end this text entry process.

Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in AR hardware and on-device computer vision. Modern AR systems can now more accurately and efficiently detect complex hand gestures in real-time, making this interaction method more robust.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedSoftware logic, computer vision, AR rendering
