1. A user interface, UI, control system, comprising:
- landmark logic to determine locations of a plurality of landmarks associated with a portion of a body of a user of a computing system;
pointer logic, coupled with the landmark logic, to determine a pointer based at least in part on the plurality of landmark locations;
identification logic, coupled with the pointer logic, to identify a UI element from a plurality of UI elements of a UI of the computing system, based at least in part on the pointer; and
display logic, coupled with the pointer logic, to provide a visual indicator of the identified UI element in a display of the computing system.

Abstract
Embodiments of systems and techniques for user interface (UI) control are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a UI control system may determine locations of landmarks on a body of a user of a computing system, determine a pointer based at least in part on the landmark locations, and identify a UI element of an UI of the computing system based at least in part on the pointer. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

31. One or more computer readable media comprising computer readable instructions which, when executed by one or more processing devices of a computing system, cause the computing system to:
-
determine locations of a plurality of landmarks associated with a portion of a body of a user of the computing system; determine a pointer based at least in part on the plurality of landmark locations; identify a UI element from a plurality of UI elements of a UI of the computing system, based at least in part on the pointer; and provide a visual indicator of the pointer in a display of the computing system. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)
