Abstract

A user computing device displays a three-dimensional virtual space via a user interface. The user computing device detects a gesture input at a location of the user interface. The user computing device translates the gesture input into a user interface input by predicting, based on the gesture input, a design intended by the gesture input and mapping, based on the design and the location of the gesture input on the user interface, the design to the user interface to generate the user interface input. The user computing device executes, in response to the user interface input, an operation to add an object in the three dimensional virtual space. The user computing device renders an updated three dimensional space displaying the object.
