USER INTERFACE SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANAGING MULTIPLE REGIONS
First Claim
1. A user interface system comprising:
- a plane registration module, the plane registration module configured to identify a first plane within an environment;
a gesture and posture recognition (GPR) module, the GPR module configured to observe a first allocation gesture, a second allocation gesture, a first modal gesture, a second modal gesture, and a third modal gesture within the environment;
a region definition module, the region definition module configured to determine a first region comprising a first portion of the first plane based on the first allocation gesture, and to determine a second region comprising a second portion of the first plane based on the second allocation gesture;
a mode determination module, the mode determination module configured to determine a first interaction mode of the first region based on the first modal gesture, determine a first interaction mode of the second region based on the second modal gesture, and to determine a second interaction mode of the first region based on the third modal gesture, wherein the first interaction mode of the first region and the second interaction mode of the first region are different; and
a visual feedback module including visual feedback circuitry, the visual feedback module configured to provide visual feedback associated with a parameter of the first region.

Abstract
A user interface system includes a plane registration module configured to identify a first plane within an environment, and a gesture and posture recognition (GPR) module configured to observe a first allocation gesture, a second allocation gesture, a first modal gesture, a second modal gesture, and a third modal gesture within the environment. A region definition module is configured to determine a first region comprising a first portion of the first plane based on the first allocation gesture, and to determine a second region comprising a second portion of the first plane based on the second allocation gesture. A mode determination module is configured to determine different interaction modes for the various regions. A visual feedback module is configured to provide visual feedback associated with a parameter of the first region.
