Assignee: ULTRAHAPTICS IP TWO LIMITED
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 20:
21. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions thereon, which instructions when executed by one or more processors implement a graphic user interface capable wearable device including:
presenting a plurality of interface projectiles displayed in a virtual or augmented reality at a first time,
wherein each interface projectile is throwable and, upon landing, blooms into a control interface where it lands,
presenting an interface projectile trajectory animation, responsive to first and second sensed positions of at least one hand sensed at a first time in a first reference frame of a three dimensional (3D) sensory space and at a second time in a second reference frame of the three dimensional (3D) sensory space using a sensor affixed to a head mounted device (HMD) worn by a user;
tracking movement of the at least one hand and motion of the attached sensor responsive to repositioning of the head mounted device and the attached sensor due to body movement;
calculating a transformation which renders the first position in the first reference frame and the second position in the second reference frame into a common reference frame;
interpreting motion of the hand in the common reference frame as user manipulation of an interface projectile, which displays travel of the interface projectile from its location at the first time to a place where it lands in the virtual or augmented reality at a second time and an animation representing the movement of the hand tossing the interface projectile, and
presenting a control interface that becomes visible, blooming from interface projectile at the place where it lands at a third time.
