Abstract
An apparatus may be manipulated using non-touch or hover techniques. Hover techniques may be associated with zooming, virtual feedback, authentication, and other operations. For example, a mobile device may receive data indicative of a hover gesture. The hover gesture may be sensed proximate to a rear of the mobile device. The level of zoom of a rendered image may be altered based on the hover gesture.
