Abstract

Described herein is a computer-implemented method for registering selections of graphical elements on electronic displays using time-of-flight sensors. First sensor data that is output by a first time-of-flight sensor can be received by a computing device. The first time-of-flight sensor can be positioned in a first orientation with respect to an electronic display. A position of an object on a surface of the electronic display can be determined based at least in part on the first sensor data. A user selection of a graphical element displayed on the electronic display can be registered at the determined position.
