You often need to fight over the TV remote. It happens everyday. What if you do not need the remote any more. Yes, that’s possible. You can do without the remote now. Hitachi unveils its gesture-based television. Now just use your hands and see the TV following your moves.

Cameras are installed inside the TV and these cameras monitor your moves and follow them.

The TV uses single-chip-based 3-D sensors provided by Canesta and the software created by GestureTek.

The Canesta’s sensors in the TV will collect a 3-D image of everything in the room. This 3-D technology helps it to recognize your hand from a printed hand on your t shirt or in any other object in the room. It recognizes different people and your hand when you stick out your hand for controlling the TV.

The gestures are simple and culturally sensitive. Gesturetek the software makes it easier for the users to control the TV according to their movements. You will also have alternate methods to control the TV.

A user of the new Hitachi TV set can get the control bar with just a wave of the hand
