A system and method for selective gesture interaction using spatial volumes is disclosed. The method includes processing data frames that each includes one or more body point locations of a collaborating user that is interfacing with an application at each time intervals, defining a spatial volume for each collaborating user based on the processed data frames, detecting a gesture performed by a first collaborating user based on the processed data frames, determining the gesture to be an input gesture performed by the first collaborating user in a first spatial volume, interpreting the input gesture based on a context of the first spatial volume that includes a role of the first collaborating user, a phase of the application, and an intersection volume between the first spatial volume and a second spatial volume for a second collaborating user, and providing an input command to the application based on the interpreted input gesture.
