Abstract
An interface system enables a user to navigate a graphical user interface by touching output regions on a touch surface or by interacting with other types of displays that present regions whose locations can be sensed by the user. The arrangement of the output regions on the output device is defined statically or dynamically to correspond to display items that are displayed by a target device, such as a computer or game. The output regions may be automatically and dynamically extracted from the software that creates the visual display on the target device. Features are included to consolidate complex displays into manageable groups.
