Enhanced input using recognized gestures

摘要

A representation of a user can move with respect to a graphical user interface based on input of a user. The graphical user interface comprises a central region and interaction elements disposed outside of the central region. The interaction elements are not shown until the representation of the user is aligned with the central region. A gesture of the user is recognized, and, based on the recognized gesture, the display of the graphical user interface is altered and an application control is outputted.

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
causing a display to show interaction elements in a graphical user interface configured in a first mode; detecting an activity of a user that indicates an engagement with the user interface in the first mode; transitioning to a second mode in response to the detecting, wherein transitioning to the second mode comprises:
causing the display to show a representation of the user along with the interaction items in the graphical user interface, wherein the representation of the user is not shown in the first mode; andmonitoring for gestures of the user; detecting a certain gesture of the user while in the second mode; causing the graphical user interface to be altered based on the certain gesture; and outputting an application control based on the certain gesture.
