1. A method for executing and interpreting gesture inputs in a gesture recognition interface system, the method comprising:
- detecting and translating a first sub-gesture into a first device input that defines a given reference associated with a portion of displayed visual content;
detecting and translating a second sub-gesture into a second device input that defines an execution command for the portion of the displayed visual content to which the given reference refers.

Abstract
One embodiment of the invention includes a method for executing and interpreting gesture inputs in a gesture recognition interface system. The method includes detecting and translating a first sub-gesture into a first device input that defines a given reference associated with a portion of displayed visual content. The method also includes detecting and translating a second sub-gesture into a second device input that defines an execution command for the portion of the displayed visual content to which the given reference refers.

13. A method for executing and interpreting gesture inputs in a gesture recognition interface system, the method comprising:
-
obtaining a plurality of sequential images of a gesture input environment; detecting a first sub-gesture based on a three-dimensional location of at least one feature of a first input object relative to displayed visual content in each of the plurality of sequential images of the gesture input environment; translating the first sub-gesture into a first device input that defines a given reference associated with a portion of the displayed visual content; detecting a second sub-gesture based on changes in the three-dimensional location of at least one feature of at least one of the first input object and a second input object in each of the plurality of sequential images of the gesture input environment; and translating the second sub-gesture into a second device input that defines an execution command for the portion of the displayed visual content to which the given reference refers. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A gesture recognition interface system comprising:
-
means for displaying visual content; means for obtaining a plurality of sequential images of a gesture input environment that is associated with the visual content; means for determining compound gesture inputs associated with at least one input object based on three-dimensional locations of at least one feature of the at least one input object in each of the plurality of sequential images of the gesture input environment; and means for translating the compound gesture inputs into a first device input and a second device input, the first device input being configured to reference a portion of the visual content and the second device input being configured to execute a command associated with the portion of the visual content to which the first device input refers in at least one of the plurality of sequential images. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
