Patent Images

1. A system comprising:

  • an electronic display configured to display one or more simulated objects in accordance with display instructions;

    an imaging sensor configured to capture images of a user'"'"'s hands; and

    a console configured to;

    receive the captured images from the imaging sensor;

    extract joint information of the user'"'"'s hands from the captured images;

    determine one or more poses based on the extracted joint information; and

    in response to the determination that the poses indicate the user'"'"'s index finger positioned orthogonally to the user'"'"'s thumb, and the thumb is in contact with the index finger, detect a directional pad display gesture; and

    in response to the detection of the direction pad display gesture, update the display instructions to cause the electronic display to generate a simulated directional pad adjacent to the user'"'"'s thumb in a simulated environment that is presented to the user via the electronic display, the simulated directional pad indicating each of one or more selection directions each with a simulated arrow, the selection of the one or more selection directions detected based on a detection of further determined poses indicating a movement of a distal end of the user'"'"'s thumb.
