Abstract
A gesture-based graphical user interface control system and method are provided. The method may include receiving an indication to recognize an input device gesture to be used for performing a graphical user interface action on the computer system. The method may further include training the computer system to recognize the input device gesture. The training may include receiving gesture data representative of the input device gesture to be used for performing the graphical user interface action and defining the input device gesture based on the gesture data. The method may also include mapping the input device gesture to the graphical user interface action. The mapping may include receiving an indication to define the graphical user interface action on the computer system and defining the graphical user interface action. The method may additionally include detecting performance of the input device gesture and performing the graphical user interface action.
