1. A method of manipulating an original image through a user interface, the method comprising:

  • using one or more sensors coupled to a computer processor, sensing a user interaction with the original image in a three dimensional coordinate system, said sensing being based on quadrilateral angle navigation that determines a touch point position within the three dimensional coordinate system, wherein the original image is displayed from a certain point in space preconfigured to match specific points in the quadrilateral angle navigation and the certain point in space is matched to space location of the user interaction to determine the touch point, said sensing resulting in each sensor providing coordinate information to the computer processor enabling the computer processor to correlate with the original image in the three dimensional coordinate system;

    in the computer processor, correlating the sensed user interaction with the three dimensional coordinate system; and

    from the computer processor through a projector, projecting an updated image based on the correlated user interaction, the updated image being equivalent to the original image manipulated by a distortion.
