Claim:
1. A method comprising: receiving video data from a camera on a wearable computing device, wherein a real-world field of view corresponds to the wearable computing device; based on the video data, detecting a first movement of a pointing device in the real-world field of view; determining that a real-world object is partially outlined by the first movement; determining an identity of an object that is located in an area of the video data corresponding to the partial outline defined by the first movement of the pointing device; initiating a search on the real-world object and outputting corresponding information related to the real-world object at the wearable computing device; detecting, based on the video data, a second movement of a pointing device in the real-world field of view, wherein the second movement is a continuation of the first movement that extends the partial outline to provide a further-defined outline the real-world object and responsive to detecting the second movement extending the outline of the real-world object, outputting additional information related to the real-world object at the wearable computing device.
