Patent Images
1. A method of gesture based searching, at least part of the method being implemented via execution of computer instructions configured to run at one or more processing modules and configured to be stored at one or more memory storage modules, the method comprising:
- communicating with a database comprising (a) a first media source having a first object, the first object having first media source metadata, and (b) at least one second media source, each of the at least one second media source having at least one second object, and each of the at least one second object having second media source metadata, respectively;
executing one or more first computer instructions configured to provide one or more search command targets to a user, the one or more search command targets corresponding respectively to one or more search field categories;
executing one or more second computer instructions configured to recognize one or more gestures of the user, the one or more gestures identifying at least one first search command target of the one or more search command targets and being provided by the user in response to the executing the one or more first computer instructions; and
executing one or more third computer instructions configured to filter the at least one second media source based on the first media source metadata and based on at least one first category of the one or more search field categories corresponding to the at least one first search command target;
wherein;
the computer instructions comprise the one or more first, one or more second, and one or more third computer instructions.

2. A system comprising:
-
a search module; wherein; the search module is configured to communicate with a database comprising (a) a first media source having a first object, the first object having first media source metadata, and (b) at least one second media source, each of the at least one second media source having at least one second object, and each of the at least one second object having second media source metadata, respectively; the search module comprises; a target module configured to provide one or more search command targets to a user of the system, the one or more search command targets corresponding respectively to one or more search field categories; a gesture recognition module configured to recognize one or more gestures of the user, the one or more gestures identifying at least one first search command target of the one or more search command targets and being provided by the user to select the at least one first search command target; and a filter module configured to filter the at least one second media source based on the first media source metadata and based on at least one first category of the one or more search field categories corresponding to the at least one first search command target; and the search module is configured to communicate with at least one of;
(a) a user electronic device of the user or (b) at least one networked electronic device.
