<p>In a touch activated computer system, a display terminal displays an image on a screen of the terminal. The image includes one or more visual option buttons arranged in a predetermined pattern. Each button corresponds to a specific application program which can be executed by the system. A camera has a lens oriented to capture frames representing a scene in front of the screen. Each frame includes a plurality of regularized pixel values. The system includes an image registration subsystem for comparing the pixel values of successive frames. A particular application is selected for execution when the pixel values corresponding to that portion of the scene directly in front of a particular button differ in successive frames more than a predetermined threshold value.</p> |
