Abstract
A system (100) and method (200) for mapping a virtual user interface (VUI) to a graphical user interface (GUI) is provided. The method can include identifying (202) a range of object movement in a first coordinate system of the Virtual User Interface (101), identifying (204) a display range in a second coordinate system of the graphical user interface (103), and mapping (206) the range of object motion to the display range to produce a virtual mapping. The method can further include tracking (211) a finger (214) movement (310), applying (213) the virtual mapping to the finger movement to produce a second movement (312), and handling (215) a touchless control (102) in accordance with the second movement.
