Abstract
Described is a system and technique for providing the ability for a user to interact with one or more devices by performing gestures that mimic real-world physical analogies. More specifically, the techniques described herein provide the ability for a user to interact with a device by limiting the conscious gesturing for a computer component by camouflaging computer-recognizable gestures within manipulations of a physical objects.

2. A method performed by one or more computing devices, the method comprising:
-
determining, by the one or more computing devices, that a display interface of a first electronic device is displaying a graphical representation of data content; determining, by the one or more computing devices, that a user associated with the first electronic device has performed a gesture corresponding to a request to transfer the data content; determining, by the one or more computing devices, that the graphical representation of data content is selected through a touch input received at the display interface of the first electronic device; determining, by the one or more computing devices, that a display interface of a second electronic device has received a touch input; generating, by the one or more computing devices, an instruction to transmit the data content from the first electronic device to the second electronic device based on (i) the touch input received at the display interface of the first electronic device, (ii) the touch input at the display interface of the second electronic device, and (iii) the gesture corresponding to the request to transfer the data content; and transmitting, by the one or more computing device to the first electronic device through a wireless computer network, the instruction to transmit the data content to the second electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)

9. A system comprising one or more computers and one or more storage devices storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform operations comprising:
-
determining that a display interface of a first electronic device is displaying a graphical representation of data content; determining that a user associated with the first electronic device has performed a gesture corresponding to a request to transfer the data content; determining that the graphical representation of data content is selected through a touch input received at the display interface of the first electronic device; determining that a display interface of a second electronic device has received a touch input; generating an instruction to transmit the data content from the first electronic device to the second electronic device based on (i) the touch input received at the display interface of the first electronic device, (ii) the touch input at the display interface of the second electronic device, and (iii) the gesture corresponding to the request to transfer the data content; and transmitting, to the first electronic device through a wireless computer network, the instruction to transmit the data content to the second electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media comprising instructions, which, when executed by one or more computers, cause the one or more computers to perform actions comprising:
-
determining that a display interface of a first electronic device is displaying a graphical representation of data content; determining that a user associated with the first electronic device has performed a gesture corresponding to a request to transfer the data content; determining that the graphical representation of data content is selected through a touch input received at the display interface of the first electronic device; determining that a display interface of a second electronic device has received a touch input; generating an instruction to transmit the data content from the first electronic device to the second electronic device based on (i) the touch input received at the display interface of the first electronic device, (ii) the touch input at the display interface of the second electronic device, and (iii) the gesture corresponding to the request to transfer the data content; and transmitting, to the first electronic device through a wireless computer network, the instruction to transmit the data content to the second electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
