First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- recognizing, from first and second images, a user'"'"'s gesture;
recognizing an identity of the user;
selecting interaction elements based on the recognized identity;
displaying a representation of the user in a control that further comprises the interaction elements disposed radially in relation to a central region of the control, wherein displaying the interaction elements is deferred until the representation of the user is aligned with the central region;
interacting with the control based on the recognized user'"'"'s gesture; and
controlling an application based on interacting with the control.

Abstract
Enhanced input using recognized gestures, in which a user'"'"'s gesture is recognized from first and second images, and a representation of the user is displayed in a central region of a control that further includes interaction elements disposed radially in relation to the central region. The enhanced input also includes interacting with the control based on the recognized user'"'"'s gesture, and controlling an application based on interacting with the control.
