Abstract: An introduction method can begin with gesture event data being received by a client application of a gesture-driven introduction system running on a user device of a first human actor. The gesture event data can comprise a gesture and ancillary conditions regarding performance of the gesture by a second human actor. The first human actor and the second human actor can be registered members of the gesture-driven introduction system. The received gesture event data can be assessed with respect to introduction definitions created by the first human actor. An introduction definition can define triggering parameters for exchanging predetermined introduction data. When the gesture event data satisfies the triggering parameters expressed in an introduction definition, the predetermined introduction data can be automatically transmitted to a user device of the second human actor. The transmission can occur without direct physical or verbal interaction between the first and second human actors.
