Hand gestures for animating and controlling virtual and graphical elements
Example systems, devices, media, and methods are described for controlling one or more virtual elements on a display in response to hand gestures detected by an eyewear device that is capturing frames of video data with its camera system. An image processing system detects a hand and presents a menu icon on the display in accordance with a detected current hand location. The image processing system detects a series of hand shapes in the captured frames of video data and determines whether the detected hand shapes match any of a plurality of predefined hand gestures stored in a hand gesture library. In response to a match, the method includes executing an action in accordance with the matching hand gesture. In response to an opening gesture, an element animation system presents one or more graphical elements incrementally moving along a path extending away from the menu icon. A closing hand gesture causes the elements to retreat along the path toward the menu icon.

AUTONOMOUS DRIVING METHOD, RELATED DEVICE, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM
The present disclosure provides example autonomous driving apparatuses and computer program products. One example apparatus includes receiving vehicle attribute information and traveling information of a target vehicle from the target vehicle. Layer information of a first road section on which the target vehicle travels is obtained from an autonomous-driving-policy-layer based on the traveling information. A first autonomous driving policy for the target vehicle is obtained based on the layer information of the first road section and the vehicle attribute information of the target vehicle. The first driving policy is sent to the target vehicle.
