Abstract: A dynamically orientable graphical user interface (GUI) can include user input controls that are configured to receive user input. The GUI can be displayed as a band around a perimeter of a horizontally oriented interactive display surface. The user input can be received directly from the orientable GUI in the form of finger movement detected by the interactive display surface and the reorientation of the GUI can be controlled according to the laws of physics, based on the user input.

Abstract: Example embodiments provide for (i) suggesting proper gesture sequences based on a user's initial gesture input; and/or (ii) providing visual or other gesture example(s), which may alternatively be compared with the user's mimic thereof. For example, a user may input a gesture into a touch/display surface. Based on the user's movement, recognized or proper application gesture commands are suggested. In other embodiments, a tutorial session may be presented to the user for teaching or educating the user on numerous types of gestures. As such, a visual representation of a gesture example may be presented to the user, and feedback provided based on the user's mimicking thereof.
