Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to using gestures to supplant or augment use of a standard input device coupled to a system. It also relates to controlling a display using gestures. It further relates to controlling a system using more than one input device. In particular, it relates to detecting a standard input device that causes on-screen actions on a display in response to control manipulations performed using the standard input device. Further, a library of analogous gestures is identified, which includes gestures that are analogous to the control manipulations and also cause the on-screen actions responsive to the control manipulations. Thus, when a gesture from the library of analogous gestures is detected, a signal is generated that mimics a standard signal from the standard input device and causes at least one on-screen action.

Abstract: A system and method for selecting distant actions on a user interface using cursor gestures includes calculating a trajectory path of a cursor digitally represented on the display screen, using a direction of the cursor, in response to receiving cursor motion towards distant action as first input from the input mechanism. At least a portion of an action object that intersects the trajectory path of the cursor is detected as a result of a second input of the input mechanism. The user interface is augmented by presenting an action menu proximate the cursor as a function of the detecting, the action menu including one or more actions associated with the action object.
