DCFirst Claim
1. A system for a 3 dimensional (3-D) user interface, the system comprising:
- one or more 3-D projectors configured to display a holographic image at a first location in a certain 3-D coordinate system;
multiple sensors configured to sense, based on quadrilateral angle navigation to determine a touch point position within the certain 3-D coordinate system, user interaction with the holographic image within the certain 3-D coordinate system and to provide user interaction information; and
a processor configured to;
(i) receive the user interaction information from the multiple sensors;
(ii) based on the received user interaction information, correlate the sensed user interaction with the holographic image using the certain 3-D coordinate system; and
(iii) provide one or more indications responsive to a correlation of the user sensed interaction with the holographic image,wherein the one or more indications comprise displaying the holographic image at a second location in the 3-D coordinate system.

Abstract
A system for a 3 dimensional (3-D) user interface comprises: one or more 3-D projectors configured to display an image at a first location in a 3-D coordinate system; one or more sensors configured to sense user interaction with the image and to provide user interaction information; and a processor configured (i) to receive the user interaction information from the one or more sensors; (ii) to correlate the user interaction with the image; and (iii) to provide one or more indications responsive to a correlation of the user interaction with the image, wherein the one or more indications comprise displaying the image at a second location in the 3-D coordinate system. A method for providing a 3-D user interface comprises: generating an image at a first location in a 3-D coordinate system; sensing user interaction with the image; correlating the user interaction with the image; and providing one or more indications responsive to a correlation of the user interaction with the image, wherein the one or more indications comprise displaying the image at a second location in the 3-D coordinate system. Computer readable program codes related to the system and the method of the present invention are also described herein.
