Abstract

Systems and methods are described for controlling a remote system. The controlling involves detecting a gesture of a body from gesture data received via a detector. The gesture comprises an instantaneous state of the body. The gesture data is absolute three-space location data of an instantaneous state of the body at a point in time and physical space. The detecting aggregates only the gesture data of the gesture at an instant in time and identifies the gesture using the gesture data. The controlling then translates the gesture to a gesture signal, and controls a component of the remote system in response to the gesture signal.
