Patent Images
1. A computer program product, comprising:
- a computer readable storage medium to store a computer readable program, wherein the computer readable program, when executed by a processor within a computer, causes the computer to perform operations for a guide mode for a gesture system, the operations comprising;
monitoring a participant gesture sphere and a guide gesture sphere, wherein the participant gesture sphere corresponds to a participant domain on a display device;
recognizing a gesture from the guide gesture sphere;
identifying an action corresponding to the gesture;
determining if the gesture system is operating in a guide mode; and
executing the action corresponding to the gesture from the guide gesture sphere within the participant domain in response to a determination that the gesture system is operating in the guide mode.

Abstract
A gesture system executes actions or commands based on gesture inputs. The system includes a detection subsystem and a gesture processing device. The detection subsystem monitor a plurality of gesture spheres, including a participant gesture sphere and a guide gesture sphere. The participant gesture sphere corresponds to a first user and a participant domain on a display device. The guide gesture sphere corresponds to a second user. The gesture processing device implements a guide mode to execute an action within the participant domain based on a gesture from the guide gesture sphere.
