Applications

1. Entertainment system interface:
   FreeMotion remote control adds gesture and pointing capability and provides to make contents more easily assessable for TVs, Set-top Box, media players with an advanced user interface. (This is more fully described on the current website already.)
2. Home automation interface:
   Instead of pointing and moving a cursor on the TV screen, FreeMotion can allow users to point to an appliance and control it.
3. Immersive and AR games:
   See Project Tuatara on Microvision’s website. They use FreeMotion to track the orientation of a gun and mounted a picoprojector on the same gun. The projector now renders the 3D virtual world in front of the gun no matter how it is pointed. I am combining this with Augmented Reality games (many examples if you search the term on Google). To implement AR one needs to align physical world with virtual world, tracking the physical world for alignment is where FreeMotion comes in.
4. Find My Car:
   One of the pacing items for indoor navigation is the lack of indoor maps. However, we don’t need maps to use FreeMotion-Locate to back trace one’s steps. Finding where one has parked one’s car is just a short hand way of describing a plausible application for this mode of indoor tracking.
5. LBS Advertising:
   Locating a consumer to know he is at a point of purchase and targeting him with a customized incentive to spur a purchase is the next thing in merchandizing. This require tracking people indoors to a very find resolution.
6. Indoor navigation:
   Finding and store, finding a friend … some writeup of this is already on the current website.
