Abstract

In one example, a method includes receiving, by a server, data representative of a group of gestures detected by the plurality of computing devices and data representative of one or more shortcuts associated with the group of gestures from a plurality of computing devices, wherein each shortcut corresponds to an action performed by at least one of the computing devices. The method may further include aggregating, by the server, the data representative of the gestures and the data representative of the associated shortcuts received from the plurality of computing devices based at least in part on detected similarities between at least one of 1) the group of gestures and 2) the associated shortcuts, and defining, by the server, a gesture-shortcut language based at least in part on the aggregated data.
