Abstract
A stereoscopic cursor method comprising: calculating a cursor scene depth of a stereoscopic cursor for a stereoscopic user interface comprising plural stereoscopic buttons, wherein the stereoscopic cursor is positioned between a viewer and the plural stereoscopic buttons; constraining movement of the stereoscopic cursor between the viewer and the plural stereoscopic buttons at the cursor scene depth for input device movements by the viewer that navigate across the front of the plural stereoscopic buttons; receiving an input signal corresponding to viewer selection of one of the plural stereoscopic buttons; and responsive to receiving the input signal, causing movement of the stereoscopic cursor from one end of the cursor scene depth to the one of the plural stereoscopic buttons in a direction coincident with the cursor scene depth.
