Abstract:
A system and method for tap event location includes a device using a selection apparatus that provides accurate point locations. The device determines a 3-dimensional map of a scene in the view frustum of the device relative to a coordinate frame. The device receives an indication of the occurrence of a tap event comprising a contact of the selection apparatus with a subject, and determines the location of the tap event relative to the coordinate frame from the location of the selection apparatus. The location of the tap event may be used to determine a subject. Data associated with the subject may then be processed to provide effects in, or data about, the scene in the view frustum of the device. Embodiments include a selection apparatus that communicates occurrences of tap events to the device and includes features that allow the device to determine the location of the selection apparatus.

Claim (Index 6):
The device of  claim 1 , wherein the subject comprises a first subject, wherein the location data is associated with a first three-dimensional mesh and a second three-dimensional mesh that represent, respectively, the first subject and a second subject in the scene in the view frustum of the device, wherein the tap event comprises a first tap event, wherein the indication comprises a first indication, and wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, further cause the device to:\n determine the first subject from the first three-dimensional mesh based on the location of the first tap event; receive a second indication that a second tap event has occurred within the scene in the view frustum; locate, in response to the second tap event occurring, at least the portion of the instrument in the view frustum relative to the device using the at least one sensor; determine a location of the second tap event relative to the coordinate frame based on the location of at least the portion of the instrument located in response to the second tap event occurring; determine the second subject from the second three-dimensional mesh based on the location of the second tap event; and determine a distance between the first subject and the second subject based on the three-dimensional map.
