Abstract

An approach is provided in which an information handling system detects fingertip movements of a user based on an imaginary grid imagined by the user. The information handling system determines a key entry or control request based upon matching the fingertip movements to fingertip movement patterns corresponding to the imaginary grid. In turn, the information handling system displays characters on a wearable computing device or performs actions based on the control requests.
