Abstract:
A mixed-reality technique is described herein that associates an instance of program functionality with an anchoring human body part, such as a user's palm, fingertip, forearm, etc. The technique then presents a virtual object in physical relation to the anchoring body part. The virtual object provides an interface that allows the user to conveniently interact with the program functionality. In some implementations, the technique identifies the body parts of the user by generating a skeleton of the user's body. The technique generates the skeleton, in turn, based on image information captured by one or more cameras. In some implementations, the virtual object that is presented is also associated with a particular person with whom the user has a predefined relationship. The user may interact with the particular person via the virtual object, e.g., by receiving and sending messages from/to the person.

Claim (Index 19):
A computer-readable storage medium for storing computer-readable instructions, the computer-readable instructions, when executed by one or more hardware processors, performing a method that comprises:\n receiving body part information that identifies at least one part of a body of a user; providing a virtual object pertaining to a particular person with whom the user has a predefined relationship; locating an anchoring body part based on the body part information, the anchoring body part being specified by at least one rule in a data store and being associated with the particular person; and presenting the virtual object to the user in physical relation to the anchoring body part, the virtual object providing an interface through which the user interacts with the particular person.
