Abstract
Disclosed are methods and systems for immersive system interfacing. A stimulus is defined in the form of a gesture or posture with an end-effector such as a hand. The stimulus is sensed within an environment and communicated to a processor. In response to the stimulus the processor generates a user interface, the interface being outputted near the end-effector. The stimulus may be identical for all times, all places, and all conditions in the environment. The interface may be generated and outputted in response to the stimulus for all times, places, and conditions in the environment. The apparatus includes a processor adapted to define a stimulus in the form of an end-effector gesture or posture, and to generate a user interface in response to the stimulus. A sensor is adapted to sense the stimulus, and a display is adapted to output the interface to an environment.
