Patent attributes
The technical problem of providing user interface elements that can be activated without physical contact with any specific device is addressed by configuring an augmented reality component to display a touchless user selectable element that can be activated in response to detecting collision of an object from the output of a digital image sensor of a camera with a user selectable element. The augmented reality component detects collision of the touchless user selectable element with an object from the person image, such as a hand object, and, in response, triggers a predetermined action, such as, for example, starting or stopping recording of the output of a digital image sensor or capturing a still image of the output of a digital image sensor.
