METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR INTERACTING WITH PROJECTED USER INTERFACE
First Claim
1. A method for providing a user interface for a mobile device, comprising:
- projecting a user interface image;
detecting a user input gesture;
identifying functionality associated with the detected user input gesture; and
changing the projected user interface image based on the interpreted gesture.

Abstract
Aspect methods and systems enable interaction with projected user interface through user input gestures performed on a mobile device. The mobile device may project the user interface image on an external surface, such as from a pico projector, and detect user input gestures performed by users. The mobile device may interpret the detected user input gestures, and change the projected user interface image in response to the interpreted user input gestures. User input gestures may be in the form of touch gestures performed on a touchscreen of the mobile device and/or in the form of hand gestures performed by turning, rotating and/or hoping the mobile device.
