Abstract

Example systems and methods of providing a user interface are presented. In one example, a graphical object is displayed on an opaque display component on a user-facing side of a computing device. Using a sensing component of the computing device, movement of a physical pointer controlled by a user is sensed. The physical pointer may be located opposite the user-facing side of the computing device. On the opaque display component, a representation of the physical pointer is displayed during the movement of the physical pointer. The graphical object, as displayed on the opaque display component, is modified based on the sensed movement of the physical pointer during the movement of the physical pointer.
