  • receiving data captured by a capture device, the capture device capturing movement or position of at least part of a user or an object controlled by the user;

    analyzing the data to determine it is likely that the user performed a system-recognized gesture that is indicative of modifying a perspective of a camera view into a virtual scene displayed on the display device, the system-recognized gesture comprising the user moving his or her head relative to the display device; and

    displaying the modified perspective of the camera view into the virtual scene on the display device based on a position of the user'"'"'s head relative to the display device, the modified perspective being determined by a viewing area formed by the planes from the user'"'"'s eyes or head extending to a border of the display device, such that movement by the user results in a parallax view perspective.
