What is Motion Recognition?
You can control the TV simply by gesturing for the camera.
You can use the Motion Recognition function to turn the TV off, change the programme and control the volume.
Motion Recognition is only a function for watching TV and it is not supported when using the smart menu, such as when connecting wireless devices, including TV apps or USB ports.
Image shown may differ from your TV.
To use the Motion Recognition function
- Prepare the Smart TV camera for use. (Sold separately) (For more information, please refer to the installation manual or owner's manual of the camera.)
- The camera is activated 20 to 30 seconds after the TV is switched on.
- Go to
SETTINGS OPTION and check if Motion Recognition is set to On.
- Stare at the camera while the TV is on and hold your hand up close to your face. The motion recognition controller appears on the TV screen. (You can check the motion recognition range of the camera in
SETTINGS OPTION Camera Setting Help.)
- Move your hand left, right, up or down to select a function. Close and open your fist to start the function.
- If you lower your hand out of the range of motion recognition, the controller disappears from the screen.
If you clench your fist for more than one second, the selected function is performed repeatedly until you open your hand.
The Motion Recognition may not be working properly if :
- You are in either too bright or too dark place. (Optimal ambient brightness : 50 lux - 600 lux)
- Your face cannot be detected by the camera because of the light behind you.
- Your face is not detected by the camera because you are wearing a hat
- The distance between you and the camera is too close or too far (Ideal distance: 1.5 m - 4.5 m)
- Your fingers cannot be detected by the camera because you are wearing gloves or a bandage.
- You moved your arm forward or your hand is not close enough to your face.
- Your skin colour is similar to the background colour.
- The background is striped.
A gesture may not be recognised in the following cases.
- If Motion Recognition is set to Off in
SETTINGS OPTION
: Set it to On. - If any other menu than the motion recognition controller is displayed on the TV screen
: Make it disappear. - (For the built-in camera) If the camera is not lifted up
: Make sure to lift up the camera.
Devices connected through a USB port or a wireless connection cannot be switched via Motion Recognition.
If more than one hand is detected by the camera, it works with the first detected hand only. To use another hand to operate the controller, lower your hand down to clear the controller from the screen and then raise your hand up again.
If you hold your hand up with it spread out or gripped, the camera may not detect your hand. Make sure that you raise your hand with all five fingers clearly displayed.
Be careful not to move your hand too fast or make too big motion. Move your hand slowly near your face.
If Motion Recognition does not work properly, lower your hand and then lift it up again.
If you open your hand at an angle, the camera might mistake this as a fist and perform the selected function.
