The techniques disclosed herein provide systems that can control the invocation of precision input mode. A system can initially utilize a first input device, such as a head-mounted display device monitoring the eye gaze direction of a user to control the location of an input target. When one or more predetermined input gestures are detected, the system can then invoke a precision mode that transitions the control of the input target from the first input device to a second input device. The second device can include another input device utilizing different input modalities, such as a sensor detecting one or more hand gestures of the user. The predetermined input gestures can include a fixation input gesture, voice commands, or other gestures that may include the use of a user's hands or head. By controlling the invocation of precision input mode using specific gestures, a system can mitigate device coordination issues.
