1. A deformable input device for interfacing with a computing device, comprising:

  • a first section; and

    a second section integrated with the first section, the first and second sections integrated through a member having a first end in contact with the first section and a second end in contact with the second section, the member being substantially perpendicular to a plane defined by an edge of the first section and a plane defined by an edge of the second section, wherein the deformable input device is configured to define a first aspect ratio in a first state and a second aspect ratio in a second state, a change between the first state and the second state capable of being detected by a capture device to cause an input command at the computing device.
