Reinventing Touchless

aeroTAP solution consist of Touchless Interface software aeroTAP evo and 3D Sensor aeroTAP 3D USB camera developed by nextEDGE Technology K.K.
In particular, the aeroTAP touchless interface is an unprecedented interface designed for user interface use.
Stereo vision type 3D sensors are expected to be used in many new technological fields and we will support the use for their applications.

aeroTAP evo can offer variety of touchless solutions to meet target environment and usage.

■ Palm Tracking  Mode
Basic solution for touchless operation from distance by hand.

■ Nearest Object Tracking Mode
Nearest Object Tracking for near range regardless of Palm.

■ Virtual Touch Screen Mode ( VT Mode )
Seamless interface as Touch Screen by fingertip.

■ Others, Custom touchless solution using Palm or 3D object tracking
We provides custom app development using touchless engine.

aeroTAP is a interface to connect a person and a device. The role for interface is to support the main figure such as the application. aeroTAP evo is designed to keep the resource consumption such as CPU of the computer as low as possible with an effective performance. It also provides intuitive touchless operation according to the type of content you use.

"Make it touchless with aeroTAP..."
aeroTAP will turn the existing application into a touchless system without the need of any development ( customization may be made ).

The resource consumption, which we recently measured, decreased compared to the previous results, while the performance increased. For example, Intel i3 CPU is 5%-10%, Intel i7 CPU is below 5%. In the idle state, Intel i3 is below 5% It can also be used with stick PCs and tablet PCs.

Simple operation and gesture definition

In addition to operation with mouse and keyboard, interface assistant features which will help you operate the application more easily and intuitively.

■ SideIn gesture will provide switching/closing applications or loading specific applications more easily.
■ Virtual button will make operation much easier.
■ Virtual scrollbar enables you to operate scroll up/down, zoom in/out action with one hand.
■ Palm gesture enables you to rotate, Flip and Tap and Drag with one hand.

■ Web contents such as HTML/JavaScript
■ 3D Contents/VR contents developed by Unity
■ Touch Screen based application
■ Others makes more easy access to existing applications

aeroTAP evo uses Palm Tracking and distance data to provide fast image processing. it provides palm tracking with very low CPU consumption.

■ Variety of  'Click' actions
You can assign Click actions to each content. Actions are: "Close to Click", "Push to Click", "Stop to Click".

■ Wide range operation
From 50cm to 2.5M. By using Zoom feature, aeroTAP evo can provide long range touchless operation.

■ No development/modification needed
To start touchless operation, just connect aeroTAP camera and run aeroTAP evo.

■ Assistance features
User can add "Virtual Button", "Virtual Scrollbar" to specific application to make operation simple.

An user interface for intuitive and immersive manipulation of aerial images.
Designed for MIRAI BAR's MIRAI PIX Aerial Display. You can operate the aerial image without obstructing the view.

Advantage:

■ Intuitive operation of 3D images reflected in the air

■ Intuitive operation while viewing content using the palm of your hand

■ Please ask us to develop any 3D application development for your system

aeroTAP Aerial 3D Interface (PDF)

aeroTAP evo can be used to detect operator's existence and position.

Ask us HumanSense app

HumanSence application uses aeroTAP API and interact with human detection. Application will launch Presentation content like Browser, PowerPoint when a operator place the position. Then the operator can control page by touchless interface.
When no operator is existence, the application plays PV.

>> As us People Counting

aeroTAP 3D USB camera can be used as People Counting using with Virtual Gate, and Virtual Sensor feature. It can be used for health care and surveillance system.

■ Smart Factory and Plant need touchless interface to access computer with dirty hand or grove.

■ E-Signage, Kiosk terminal, public terminal device need touchless interface to keep it clean and safe.

■ Mirror Display, Air Display need touchless interface for user to provide immersive experience.
>> about E-Signage

■ Auto-Door, Secured Door need touchless interface to provide more high secured system

aeroTAP 3D USB camera can scrape real time stereo images and depth images. aeroTAP can attach multiple 3D camera at the same time without putting extra load on CPU. It is available for IoT device, development of digital contents, real time 3D reconstruction and development of touchless interface.

Usage Example - Object Detection and tracking

Usage Example - 3D Point Cloud

About development environment

To make an existing application touchless using aeroTAP evo, you can do so without changing the application.

When using 3D point cloud data on Windows OS, use SDK or OpenNI2 driver which are both free of charge.

For Linux (Ubuntu, Raspberry Pi2/3), please use the sample code.
