Proposal of 3 Dimension Imaginary Space Touch Panel of Non-wearing Using Ultrasonic Sensors

We propose three dimension virtual space touch panel that can be intuitively operated by moving the finger. In this research, three ultrasonic sensors are installed in the ceiling. Then, three dimension coordinates of the finger are specified by measuring the distance of each ultrasonic sensor from the finger. The simulation shows a good performance and accuracy. It is aimed to be used for 3D device operation.
