Object Recognition allows the user to place an object onto one of our interactive touch units and the system will respond to that object, such as launching a video, a website or an interactive menu.
There are 3 main components needed to create an object recognition system:
- A touchscreen that allows multiple touch points
- Pucks - these can be a simple flat puck or a 3D design and 3D printed puck.
- Software that can read the puck and where it has been placed on the screen, and then react with a menu, etc.
All object recognition systems that Promultis offer work by the system reading the feet of the puck (using triangulation), giving that puck an ID number and then presenting that information to the software via middleware. It uses a system called TUIO.
Promultis offer a one stop shop solution if you want to use object recognition. We offer the touchscreens, the pucks, and the software, and all the advice you need. We are also just as happy to provide 1 or more of the pieces required.
