Abstract
During control of a user interface via free-space motions of a hand or other suitable control object, switching between control modes can be facilitated by tracking the control object's movements relative to, and its contact with a “virtual touch plane or surface” (i.e., a plane, portion of a plane, and/or surface computationally defined in space, or corresponding to any physical surface).
