Abstract

Technology for detecting multimodal commands that enhance the human-computer interaction of a computing device. In an illustrative implementation, a computing device may receive multiple input events from a plurality of input devices. The plurality of input devices may each correspond to a different computer input modalities and the computing device may correlate the input events across different modalities. The computing device may keep the input events in their native form (e.g., input device specific) or may transform the input events into modality independent events. In either example, the computing device may determine the events satisfy a definition for a multimodal command that identifies multiple events from different computer input modalities. Responsive to the determination, the computing device may invoke the multimodal command on the client device to perform one or more computing operations.
